Script help
I have two files namely names and others markets.
The entry in names file
Quote:
apttbp
cdrfhty

and the entries in markets is like
Quote:
newjersey
oklahoma
I need to read all the entries in names file line by line and also markets file and create a zero byte files
like
Quote:
apttbp.newjersey.01232008.batch1.dat
apttbp.oklahoma.01232008.batch1.dat
cdrfhty.newjersey.01232008.batch1.dat
cdrfhty.oklahoma.01232008.batch1.dat
I should be able to pass the .01232008.batch1.dat as paramter to the script. can some body let me know how i can do it?


I just gave the example above and there are lot of entries in names and markets files. That is why i need a program.

This solution might not be efficient for a large "names.out" or "market.out" :-)

Code:
$ cat names.out
n1
n2

$ cat market.out
m1
m2

$ cat fnam.sh
#!/bin/sh
for ns in `cat names.out`
        do
        for ms in `cat market.out`
                do
                echo "Creating $ns.$ms.$1"
                touch "$ns.$ms.$1"
                done
        done

$ ./fnam.sh 01232008.batch1.dat
Creating n1.m1.01232008.batch1.dat
Creating n1.m2.01232008.batch1.dat
Creating n2.m1.01232008.batch1.dat
Creating n2.m2.01232008.batch1.dat
