hi
i have a script that reads lines from a file in this manner:
cat infile | while read line
do
echo "$line" >> outfile
done
The problem I have occurs whenever there is a whitespace at the end of a
line in the input file, because this whitespace get automatically truncated
from "$line", and i dont want that..i want the whole line to go into
outfile, no matter if the last characters are whitespace!
thanks very much
martin
