Full Discussion: Counter based on 10 files or less

Counter based on 10 files or less
there are around 676 files in a directory and I want to batch every 10 and then remaining 7 files as well for a batch pressing job simultaneously.

I'm trying to pick-up every 10 counter'd files -- batch these files and then move on with the next batch.. after resetting the Counters back to 0;

but what if I am left with remaining [1-9] files like for now I have 7 files which are not falling under ==10 rule .

Code:
FILECOUNTER=0;
for filex  in `ls`; 
do
let "FILECOUNTER++" 
FILENAMES="$filex\t$FILENAMES"
if [[  $FILECOUNTER  -eq 10  ]]
then
$BATCH_THE_PROCESS  `echo -e $FILENAMES`
FILECOUNTER=0; 
FILENAMES="";
fi
done


This loop is running fine for files till 670, but I'm missing last 7 files which are not accounted for in the if-else

Can someone please suggest to get a listing for every 10 or less ( if there are less than 10 files remaining)

Regards,
NMR

codeblocks

man(1)							     Code::Blocks IDE man page							    man(1)

NAME

       Code::Blocks - The open-source, cross-platform IDE

SYNOPSIS

       codeblocks  [-h]  [-ns] [-d] [--prefix <str>] [-p <str>] [--profile <str>] [--rebuild] [--build] [--target <str>] [--no-batch-window-close]
       [--batch-build-notify] [filename(s)...]

DESCRIPTION

       codeblocks launches the Code::Blocks IDE. Its various command-line arguments are listed below.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
	       Displays the list of accepted command-line arguments.

       -ns     Do not display a splash screen on startup. The splash screen can be completely disabled in the program's environment options.

       -d      Enable the debugging log.

       --prefix
	       Specify an alternate path for Code::Blocks to find its shared files.

       -p, --profile
	       Set which profile to use. If you set the profile to ask , Code::Blocks will display a list with all the known  profiles	to  choose
	       from.

       --rebuild
	       Start  a batch rebuild (i.e. "clean" and "build") job on the filenames passed as arguments. The filenames can be either projects or
	       workspaces.

       --build Start a batch build (i.e. no "clean") job on the  filenames  passed  as	arguments.   The  filenames  can  be  either  projects	or
	       workspaces.

       --target
	       Specify a single build target to build in the batch build (or rebuild) job.

       --no-batch-window-close
	       When the batch job ends, the log window closes too. This option keeps it open until you manually close it.

       --batch-build-notify
	       Display a message when the batch job finishes.

EXAMPLES

       Batch build myproject.cpp, only the "Debug" target and keep the batch job window open when finished:
       codeblocks --build --target="Debug" --no-batch-window-close myproject.cbp

       Batch rebuild everything in myproject.cpp:
       codeblocks --rebuild myproject.cbp
