- m463 7y agothat is very clever. I usually do these sorts of things in a loop, sometimes like: <something> | while read f do sleep 10 <do-something-with> "$f" done
- brokenmachine 7y agoBetter make sure there's no spaces in that <something> or that will break. I usually use this: <something> | tr '\n' '\000' | xargs -0 -n1 command The tr will convert newlines to nulls. Otherwise you need to change the IFS. Just commenting because this was a bugbear of mine when getting started in bash.

- tedshroyer 7y agoI think it would overwrite, but it seems like all the names were unique
