String in text matches folder name
Hi,
I need unix shell script that can read the first column of a text file and matching each column string is a folder and i need to read files from the specified folder e.g
Main.txt has
Mike 690
Jhon 346
i need to read Mike first then open up the files in folder Mike in the same directory.Similarly, for Jhon there exists a folder called Jhon and i need to read files from the jhon folder.
Can anyone provide me with the script
Thanks.
