who to deal with whole line in shell scripting
I have a problem in my HP Unix system , it is briefly :
I have two files : Myfile and Script.sh :
Myfile contain this lines :
Code:
String1         string2         string3        string5 
String1         string2         string3        string5 
String1         string2         string3        string5 
String1         string2         string3        string5 
String1         string2         string3        string5 
String1         string2         string3        string5 
String1         string2         string3        string5 
String1         string2         string3        string5


And Script.sh files has :
Code:
for x in $(<Myfile)
do
echo $x
done

the output will like this :
Code:
string1
string2
string3 
string1
string2
string3 
string1
string2
string3 
string1
string2
string3

it means this script deal with word as $x I want deal with whole the line as $x , I want the output like this :
Code:
String1         string2         string3        string5 
String1         string2         string3        string5 
String1         string2         string3        string5 
String1         string2         string3        string5 
String1         string2         string3        string5 
String1         string2         string3        string5 
String1         string2         string3        string5 
String1         string2         string3        string5
