It's because without a filename cat reads from stdin. Try something
like the following instead, which adds support for comments and blank lines:
while IFS= read -r name <&3;
do
case "$name" in
#*|"") continue ;;
*) cat $name >> $oname.ini ;;
esac
done 3< sections.txt
Also, since you don't seem to be wanting to support whitespace in your
filename (cat $name instead of cat "$name") you might want to put
anything after the first whitespace on the line into a different
variable so you can have lines like:
pre_amble.sec # Really great startup code
...in your sections.text file. Do this like so:
while IFS= read -r name JUNK <&3;
...and you'll get:
name="pre_amble.sec"
JUNK="# Really great startup code"
...otherwise with your current code you'll get:
name="pre_amble.sec # Really great startup code"
...which will cause problems with your cat command when it gets expanded.
