There seems to be something wrong with trying to indirect into a root

D:/ml/ml_ref/MLW/demo# for x in basis/INDEX; do cat basis/INDEX > /distribution/poo; done
D:/ml/ml_ref/MLW/demo# for x in basis/INDEX; do cat $x > /distribution/poo; done

D:/ml/ml_ref/MLW/demo# sh -c "for x in basis/INDEX; do cat $x > /distribution/poo; done"
sh: /distribution/poo: No such file or directory
D:/ml/ml_ref/MLW/demo# sh -c "for x in basis/INDEX; do cat $$x > /distribution/poo; done"
sh: /distribution/poo: No such file or directory
