Hi Andy, actually, I'm now using this`to explicitly get the last component of the output, which also seems to work well: ``` while read -r -a line; do # Default format is: "TID OP MODE LFN", note TID may contain spaces. # Just take last column! num_cols=${#line[@]} LFN=${line[$((num_cols - 1))]} chmod go+rX "${LFN}" done < /dev/stdin ``` So this fixed my issue, and redefining the format would likely fix it, too (i.e. this is now "WORKSFORME"). I still wonder if the TID containing spaces is a wanted behaviour, though. If that's acceptable, we can close the issue, but if the TID should never contain spaces, we should probably keep it open to fix that. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
