RE: Read/Write files from a script?

[Jean-Sebastien Pilon]

$ cat filename     ß read the file $ echo ‘bob’ > filename ( [over]write to the file ) Or $ echo ‘bob’ >> filename    ( appends to the file )   From: Anil Gupte [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 19, 2006 7:50 AM To: debian-user@lists.debian.org Subject: Read/Write files from a script?   Is there a shell command to read files?  I want to open a text file, loop through each line and parse the line of text.   Also, as I am in learning mode, is there a way to write text files from a script?   Thanx, Anil Gupte
