Shell Programming and Scripting

hello,

I need help in Unix scripting

I have a whole list of file name in a Input file. I need to run the command iteratively and output the result into a text file
e.g
While read < Input file ; do
QUERY filenane
done > output.txt

Appreciate your help

Thank you
Suhas

Code:

 
#/bin/sh
while read filename
do
   echo run process "\"$filename\""
done < infile > outfile

You're already pretty close.

Code:

while read FILENAME
do
        echo "do something with $FILENAME"
done < inputfile > outputfile

I am getting the data I want

This what I want

Command QUERY filename

----output from above command---
filename is an index file (bit-mapped)
Dictionary segment not allocated
File can contain 62,914,560 records

your solution gives
QUERY "filename1
"
QUERY "filename2
"

How do I rectify the error ?

The file exists.

bash-3.00$ echo `QUERY ` "ACTION"
usage: QUERY file ...
ACTION

Code:

while read FILENAME
do
  QUERY "$FILENAME"
done < inputfile > outputfile

QUERY: can't open filename 1
QUERY: can't open filename 2

This also did not work

#/bin/sh
while read filename
do
echo `QUERY ` "$filename"
done < ~/Test.txt > ~/outfile

QUERY is a program and its input is a filename

Please read and copy well.
I haven't used back-ticks. Why have you?
Use QUERY "$filename" instead of echo `QUERY ` "$filename".
