I truely appreciate the helpful troubleshooting tips and explanations. I will use them to debug and post back. I did learn as a reseacher and am always trying to refine and improve my technique. I don't know if I will get there, but i will always try and practice. Biology and programming are essential and interesting. Thank you again 😀.

The variables are all being populated correctly but using set -xv, thank you... the script never gets past or to the done (it stalls on the bold line.
Code:
for file in /home/cmccabe/folder/less/*.txt ; do
bname=$(basename "$file")
pref="${bname%%_*.txt}"
set -xv
/home/cmccabe/folder/less/exon.sh /home/cmccabe/folder/less/all_cdsV2 "$file" \> /home/cmccabe/folder/less/${pref}_output.txt
done
set +xv
So since the first .txt file never completes the second one never starts processing. Why this is seems to be my issue no its a matter off figuring out the why. Thank you for the helpful "talk", I appreciate it .
I ran bash -x
Code:
for file in /home/cmccabe/folder/less/*.txt ; do
bname=$(basename "$file")
pref="${bname%%_*.txt}"
bash -x /home/cmccabe/folder/less/exon.sh /home/cmccabe/folder/less/all_cdsV2 "$file" > /home/cmccabe/folder/less/${pref}_output.txt
done
and confirmed the .txt files are not being passed to the exon script as input.

rmf
rmf(1) General Commands Manual rmf(1)NAME
rmf - remove folder (only available within the message handling system, mh)
SYNOPSIS
rmf [+folder] [-help] [-[no]interactive]
OPTIONS
Prints a list of the valid options to this command. Asks for confirmation before deleting a folder. By default, rmf deletes a folder and
its messages without asking for confirmation. If you specify the -interactive option, rmf asks if you are sure before deleting the folder.
You are advised to use this option, since when rmf deletes a folder its contents are lost irretrievably.
DESCRIPTION
The rmf command removes all of the messages within the current folder, and then removes the folder itself. If there are any files within
the folder which are not part of MH, they are not removed, and an error message is displayed.
You can specify a folder other than the current folder by using the +folder argument. If you do not specify a folder, and rmf cannot find
the current folder,rmf asks you whether you want to delete +inbox instead.
If the current folder is removed, it makes +inbox current.
Note that the rmf command irreversibly deletes messages that do not have other links, so use it with caution.
If the folder being removed is a sub-folder, the parent folder becomes the new current folder, and rmf tells you that this has happened.
This provides an easy mechanism for selecting a set of messages, operating on the list, then removing the list and returning to the current
folder from which the list was extracted.
Using rmf to delete a read-only folder deletes the private sequence and current message information from the file, without affecting the
folder itself. If you have sub-folders within a folder, you must delete all the sub-folders before you can delete the folder itself.
PROFILE COMPONENTS
Path: To determine the user's Mail directory
EXAMPLES
This example shows how rmf asks for confirmation when the -interactive option is used: % rmf -interactive +test Remove folder "test"? y
FILES
The user profile.
