Hi, I keep running into this particular gap in my scripting, and hope someone can clear it up for me.
FILES=$( ls SOMEWHERE ) #or find or grep, etc for FILE in $FILES; do SOMETHING; done I often find that if there are spaces in the names of anything in $FILES, the execution of SOMETHING occurs separately for each word in the name, producing unexpected results. Quoting doesn't seem to help. Are there ways to deal with this? Thanks, John -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
