Re: [SLE] [OT] script help?

* Mark Hounschell (markh@compro.net) [020509 09:06]:

How can you use the contents of a file as command line parameters for a script? The file has 3 colums and each colume I want to be command line $1 $2 $3 respectivly for the script.

$script < file does not seem to work

while read rec do your_command_here $rec done < file_with_args You can also do this in awk but it's a little more, uhm..., awkward. -- -ckm
