Hi all,
The following script is fine when I work via command line
HTML Code:
m=1
c=0
while [ $c = 0 ]
do
echo $m
gnokii --getsms IN $m > out.txt;
m=`expr $m + 1`;
cat out.txt >> message_log;
############
read first crap< <(sed -n '/Text:/{n;p;}' out.txt);
read message< <(sed -n '/Text:/{n;p;}' out.txt);
if [ $first != "02" ]; then
cat out.txt
fi
#############
SIZE=`wc -c out.txt | tr -d ' out.txt'`
if [ $SIZE == 0 ]; then
echo 'time to exit';
c=`expr $c + 1`;
fi
done
but when run via a shell script I get the error message:
HTML Code:
/usr/local/bin/mc_smsread.sh: line 18: syntax error near unexpected token `<'
/usr/local/bin/mc_smsread.sh: line 18: `read first crap< <(sed -n '/Text:/{n;p;}' out.txt);'
Why does it work on command line but not within the loop?
Here is an example out.txt file that is written and used:
HTML Code:
