[NTLUG:Discuss] bash shell array question...

[Fred James]

(Sorry - on the first attempt I cut out the discussion part - second try 
here)

#! /bin/bash
#
makeList.sh
#
ServerList=$1
WordList=$2

declare -a S
declare -a U

Count=0
cat $ServerList | while read Server User
do
	S[$Count]=$Server
	U[$Count]=$User
	Count=`expr $Count + 1`
	echo "$Count"
	echo "${#S[*]} ${#S[@]}"
	ACount=$Count
done
echo "count : $Count"
echo "number of elements : ${#S[*]} ${#S[@]}"
echo "acount : $ACount"

Leave=0
echo "$Leave $Count"
while test $Leave -lt $Count
do
	echo "$Leave: ${S[$Leave]} ${U[$Leave]}"
	Leave=`expr $Leave + 1`
done
exit
