Can you please help me: I have file with lines:
aaa
bbb
ccc
I need to produce:
'aaa'
'bbb'
'ccc'
Here's the simplest thing I could think of.
Just use
print "'$line'"
Here's a demonstration:
/Users/henk/src/gene-golub$ cat run
input=test/sample
expected=$(<test/expected)
result=$(
exec < $input
while read line; do
print "'$line'"
done
)
[[ $result == $expected ]] && echo ok
/Users/henk/src/gene-golub$ ksh run
ok
(detailed trace below the signoff)
Cheers,

/Users/henk/src/gene-golub$ ksh -x run
+ input=test/sample
+ 0< test/expected
+ expected=$'\'aaa\'\n\'bbb\'\n\'ccc\''
+ exec
+ 0< test/sample
+ read line
+ print $'\'aaa\''
+ read line
+ print $'\'bbb\''
+ read line
+ print $'\'ccc\''
+ read line
+ result=$'\'aaa\'\n\'bbb\'\n\'ccc\''
+ [[ $'\'aaa\'\n\'bbb\'\n\'ccc\'' == 'aaa'$'\n''bbb'$'\n''ccc' ]]
+ echo ok
ok
Users/henk/src/gene-golub$ grep . test/*
test/expected:'aaa'
test/expected:'bbb'
test/expected:'ccc'
test/sample:aaa
test/sample:bbb
test/sample:ccc
