$ cat filename ß read the file
$ echo ‘bob’ > filename ( [over]write
to the file )
Or
$ echo ‘bob’ >> filename (
appends to the file )

Subject: Read/Write files from a
script?
Is there a shell command to read files? I want to open a
text file, loop through each line and parse the line of text.
Also, as I am in learning mode, is there a way to write text files
from a script?
Thanx,
Anil Gupte
