How To Handle with Spaces in File Names in Linux Shell Scripts
Spaces in file names can be a headache. Say you have the following files with spaces in the file names:
jknight@shadowbox:/tmp$ ls -1
1 .txt
2 .txt
3 .txt
4 .txt
5 .txt
and you want to loop over them. How many times have you tried this?
jknight@shadowbox:/tmp$ for file in $(find . -iname "*.txt"); do echo $file; done
./1
.txt
./2
.txt
./3
.txt
./4
.txt
./5
.txt
In effect, this splits on spaces into an array, then loops over it: most definitely not what we wanted. Try piping to a "while read" instead:
jknight@shadowbox:/tmp$ find . -iname "*.txt" -print | while read file;do echo $file; done
./1 .txt
./2 .txt
./3 .txt
./4 .txt
./5 .txt
jknight@shadowbox:/tmp$ ls -1
1 .txt
2 .txt
3 .txt
4 .txt
5 .txt
and you want to loop over them. How many times have you tried this?
jknight@shadowbox:/tmp$ for file in $(find . -iname "*.txt"); do echo $file; done
./1
.txt
./2
.txt
./3
.txt
./4
.txt
./5
.txt
In effect, this splits on spaces into an array, then loops over it: most definitely not what we wanted. Try piping to a "while read" instead:
jknight@shadowbox:/tmp$ find . -iname "*.txt" -print | while read file;do echo $file; done
