Splitting a string in bash…

I found this little trick to split a string in bash, so I’m sharing. Maybe it’s obvious to some people, but I don’t do a lot of shell scripting, so it was helpful to me.

Anton,
Love the tutorial, great stuff and very helpful. I do have a question however. Suppose I am wanting to read specific contents within a text file like name, address, phone, etc… and put it into another file to archive. How do I read the file using Bash and make it look for keywords to recognize what I need it to read? (hope that makes sense) =)

I think its a great idea, if i can get hold of the parts that cheaply over hear in Endland, then i think i might have a go. it seems like a really interesting way to create art in public places. i always like playing with new mediums, and this sound like one of the more inventive ideas i’ve heard of recently. you probably won’t get this cos the last update was last year, but thanks anyway.

Great idea for the shuffle! The “sort” might or should be “sort -n”, at least for consistency. BTW, I compared your shuffle() with a simple perl script using mainly “splice(@array, rand @array, 1)”. The perl shuffles 40k lines in 0.5 seconds whereas your shuffle() takes 8.2 seconds on a 2.4 GHz Xeon. Of course, the difference is of less importance when the number of lines is lower.

Ted,

If you get the 4% in a var, then you could always just split in on %, take the first part, and use a regular if to handle it.

X=$(curl -s -o - http://www.random.org/cgi-bin/checkbuf)
if [ “${X%\%*}” -get 10 ] ; then
echo “X is more than 10%!”
fi
