Why do you limit the fsecond.txt file's lines to 5?
---------- Post updated at 21:08 ---------- Previous update was at 21:06 ----------
Howsoever, without the limit, this might work:
Code:
while read A; do while read B; do echo $A$B; done <file4; done < file3
A1
A2
A3
A4
A5
A6
A7
A8
A9
A10
B1
B2
B3
B4
B5

No, sir, I have put (example) as a mark that this 10-line length is just an example.
What am I about to use is a dictionary text file with about 5000 lines.
The essence here is...that those two files does not have same number of lines AND the script should end when the last line from
Code:
ffirst.txt
is combined with all the lines from
Code:
fsecond.txt
.
I am about to try your suggested solution, and see how it goes.

Then your sample output is misleading, and the code given should work as desired.
However, with one small and one large file, that code is suboptimal. It made more sense to read the small file's values into an array and then loop through the array for every large file's line...

Got a recent bash? Then try
Code:

while read B; do for IX in ${!A[@]}; do echo ${A[$IX]}$B; done; done < file4

Dear sir, I cannot thank you enough for your help.
I have what I have been looking for....thanks to you.
Just as a summary, this is the complete example:
Code:
gile.sh
Code:
#!/bin/bash
while read lineA
do while read lineB
do echo $lineA" -delimiter- "$lineB
done < fsecond.txt
done < ffirst.txt
Code:
The OUTPUT:

Note: I have updated first file with F and second file with 11....to see how it works.
For the real purpose of the script, first file I am going to use is about 5000 lines long, and second is 3500 lines long....just to update you with the real info.
Dear RudiC, if you think that this code can run more smoothly, I kindly ask you to offer such solution.
