Inline Shell Script with a For Loop
Often I’m asked how to traverse a list of items in a file. You can easily go through a list of items using a for loop. Here’s an example of copying selected contents of originalDir to destinationDir via the command line. #sh #for i in `cat /home/esofthub/mylist.dat` #do #cp -pr /originalDir/$i /destinationDir/. #echo $i done #done
