I am dealing with DOS text files and need to output DOS text files. This scenario is not about converting a file in DOS format to UNIX format; or read a file line by line. It relates to using Unix commands and manipulating a dos file and staying in a dos format How do you read each line in a while loop? Do I need to change the IFS or use dos2unix? How does a Bash script output a DOS text file? I found dos2unix, but I do not know how to properly implement it. The following Bash code is a work-in- progress. Please let me know if a more efficient approach exists. while read line do i=0 echo "LINE -> $line" echo "i -> $i" MP3[i++]=$(awk '/^.*\.mp3/ { print $1}') CRC[i++]=$(awk '/^.*\.mp3/ { print $3}') echo "MP3[i] -> $MP3[i]" echo "CRC[i] -> $CRC[i]" done < <(dos2unix "$FILE") #do some stuff then unix2dos "$FILE" The cygwin console returns the following error. My syntax is not correct. FileRenamer3.sh: line 132: syntax error near unexpected token `<' FileRenamer3.sh: line 132: ` done < < (dos2unix "$FILE")' -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
