this works but at least with bash you can do it with brace expansion for x in {1..10}; do … ; done it's a bashism but maybe more portable, e.g. OS-X has no seq no fork (for the seq) is necessary as well -- Regards, Markus _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
