Well, this is confusing to start off.
  • Firstly, what shell are you using?
  • What is the content of the file lista_olo and what purpose is it? It doesn't seem to be used anywhere else.
  • Your loop is a poor choice, you would be better with:-
    Code:
    while read file
do
   something
done < list


What is the overall point of you code? If you can describe it a bit more fully, we may be able to direct you to a more suitable solution.

Maybe it is as simple as removing the space between << & EOF ? I haven't tried.


Kind regards,
Robin
