Sometime on Dec 13, PN cobbled together some glyphs to say:
I am writing a shell script where I retrive values from a text file using cut. I want to save these into variables. The script is something like this... grep searchtext file | cut -f 1,3,7,8 I want to save the values returned by cut into 4 different variables.
This works: read a b c d <<EOF $( grep searchtext file | cut -f 1,3,7,8 ) EOF -- * UNIX is a Trademark of Bell Laboratories. -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
