Does anyone know of a GOOD bash list? If yes - I'll go there.
The following works: while read line; do ... ... done < somefile ... ...
How would one go about doing something similar replacing the file redirection with the output of a command? Before you say pipe it, that doesn't work because the pipe starts a subprocess and anything done inside the while loop is lost to the rest of the original process.
i.e. ps -eo "%p" | while read line; do ... # anything done here is ... # lost to the original process done ... # Code here can't use anything ... # done inside the while loop
Suggestions?
