There is a great scripting language but it will take some time getting use
to. It is called
AWK
It reads line by line and indexes all arguements on that line.
Its really a great scripting tool once you become accustomed to it....

>A (probably) stupid question from a shell-programming newbie..

>I have got a long list of usernames and passwords which I want to read and
pass to the htpasswd command. I need a function which reads a line of a
file, giving me a variable with the contents of that line, then moving on to
the next line and so on, looping. I looked around, but the best I found was
the 'read' command which I only get to read one line... I know there must be
a way to do this, but I can't find it... help!
