The fastest script would be:
This saves an awk and a grep for each iteration of the loop. You are still launching a scpshow process for each iteration of the loop. Unless scpshow can work with multiple subs at once, this can't be avoided.
Hi all,
I have a script that scan files, find old templet and replace it with new one.
#!/bin/ksh
file_name=$1
old_templet=$2

# Loop through every file like this
for file in file_name
do
cat $file | sed "s/old_templet/new_templet/g" > $file.new

Hi guys, I use this function which was provided to me by someone at this site. It works perfectly for validating a users input option against allowed options..

I'm obviously very new to this. I'm trying to write a simple for loop that will read the directory names in /Users and then copy a file into the same subdir in each user directory.
I have this, and it works but it isn't great.

HOMEDIRS=/Users/*
for dirs in $HOMEDIRS; do

To start, I am not a linux/unix expert but I muddle through the best I can.
I am also in no way shape or form a programmer. Please keep that in mind as you read this script.

break
break(1) User Commands break(1)NAME
break, continue - shell built-in functions to escape from or advance within a controlling while, for, foreach, or until loop
SYNOPSIS
sh
break [n]
continue [n]
csh
break
continue
ksh
*break [n]
*continue [n]
DESCRIPTION
sh
The break utility exits from the enclosing for or while loop, if any. If n is specified, break n levels.
The continue utility resumes the next iteration of the enclosing for or while loop. If n is specified, resume at the n-th enclosing loop.
csh
The break utility resumes execution after the end of the nearest enclosing foreach or while loop. The remaining commands on the current
line are executed. This allows multilevel breaks to be written as a list of break commands, all on one line.
The continue utility continues execution of the next iteration of the nearest enclosing while or foreach loop.
ksh
The break utility exits from the enclosed for, while, until, or select loop, if any. If n is specified, then break n levels. If n is
greater than the number of enclosing loops, the outermost enclosing loop shall be exited.
The continue utility resumes the next iteration of the enclosed for, while, until, or select loop. If n is specified then resume at the n-
th enclosed loop. If n is greater than the number of enclosing loops, the outermost enclosing loop shall be used.
On this man page, ksh(1) commands that are preceded by one or two * (asterisks) are treated specially in the following ways:
1. Variable assignment lists preceding the command remain in effect when the command completes.
2. I/O redirections are processed after variable assignments.
3. Errors cause a script that contains them to abort.
4. Words that follow a command preceded by ** that are in the format of a variable assignment are expanded with the same rules as a vari-
able assignment. This means that tilde substitution is performed after the = sign, and also that word splitting and file name genera-
tion are not performed.
