Parsing text file and feeding it into an executable
Hello, everyone. I am working wtihin AIX 5.3, and I need to do the following:
read the each line of file BASE.txt
do XK {line contents}
if XK's output begins with "BASE", then append line contents to file "output.txt"
continue until end of file
Here is what I tried(unsuccessfuly):
Basically, I need to end up with a list of entries from the "BASE.txt" file that returned 'BASE' as the first four characters, when used as an argument in the "XK" executable. The script I have returns only this:
ksh: syntax error: `done' unexpected
I know I am making this too difficult. Can you guys please help?

You are missing a fi , which is the end of a if block , i guess .

Alas, no. All this does is list the grep lines. It doesn't create the "output.txt" file, listing only the lines from "BASE.txt" that match the test. However, you got me a lot further. Thank you.
