Re: Another (simpler) bash scripting question...

[Michael O'Donnell]

That idiom (just mentioned here) where you do something like

   spewSomeKindOfOutput | while read input
   do
       somethingWith $input
   done


...does indeed work and I use it all the time, but
it has a subtle scoping gotcha that drove me nuts the
first time I tripped over it - anybody know what I'm
referring to?
