And thank you as well Brian.
I'm still fairly new to bash scripting, and am unfamiliar with all of
the tools that make our lives easier.
Thanks for the additions.
Regards,

I wasn't right:
It should be:
$ file=*.pdf; file=`echo $file | sed "s/ /,/g"`
$ echo $file
$ email [EMAIL PROTECTED] -s test -a $file < sample.txt
Firstly this can be simplified to simply:
email [EMAIL PROTECTED] -s test -a $(echo *.pdf|sed "s/ /,/g") <sample.txt
but this will not work if any filename or pathname contains spaces. You
can solve that with:
email [EMAIL PROTECTED] -s test -a "$(sh -c 'IFS=,; echo "$*"' -- *.pdf)" \
<sample.txt
