string comparison
Hello experts,

(tcsh shell)

Quite new to shell scripting...

I have got a file with a single word on each line. Want to be able to make a comparison such that i can read pairs of words that are ROT13 to each other. Also, i would like to print the pairs to another file.

Any help appreciated....

Thanks in advance !
