I'm not sure what it is exactly that you try to do, but: $(cd "$FOLDERNAME") chdir-s into that directory in a subshell and then returns the output of that command (which is always empty) as the command to execute. That command is empty which is a syntax error in the while loop. -- Tzafrir Cohen | tzaf...@jabber.org | VIM is http://tzafrir.org.il | | a Mutt's tzaf...@cohens.org.il | | best ICQ# 16849754 | | friend -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
