Use '<' for ksh/bash.

Yes in this case this is enough. My idea was more generally example, some commands give some list and use it.
Code:
set -A array1 $(<list1)
set -A array2 $(<list2)

Please, don't hijack other people's threads - start your own.
I'd suggest rereading the rules as well.

Then start a new thread (and explain the method that leads from your input to your desired output).

(And look at the paste command.)
