On a UNIX system you can do something like this - your Windows milage may vary...

Code:
#!/usr/bin/awk -f

BEGIN {
   # This "getline" reads from STDIN - terminate with Return then EOF
   getline input
}

END {
   # Change "./mymatches" to the path to the file containing the matches
   # The match file should have the numbers, space seperated, on ONE line
   getline line < "./mymatches"
   input_count = split( input, input_array, " ");
   line_count = split( line, line_array, " ");
   for ( i = 1; i <= input_count; i++ ) {
      for ( j = 1; j <= line_count; j++ ) {
         if ( input_array[ i ] == line_array[ j ] ) {
             printf( "%s matches\n", input_array[ i ] )
         }
      }
   }
}

Run on a UNIX machine, the session proceeds as follows....
Code:
$ ./my.awk
10 15 20 25 <return>
<EOF>
10 matches
20 matches
$

The EOF character on a UNIX machine is produced by typing Ctrl-D - on Windows it's Ctrl-Z.

Cheers

NAME
igawk - gawk with include files SYNOPSIS
igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ... igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ... DESCRIPTION
Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include files'' to gawk(1). AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in addition, you may have lines like @include getopt.awk in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path. OPTIONS
See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports. EXAMPLES
cat << EOF > test.awk @include getopt.awk BEGIN { while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1) ... } EOF igawk -f test.awk SEE ALSO
