In sh and ksh, I have used
for i in `cat file`
do
do-something-with-$i
done
on other systems with no problem. In OS X, this sometimes hangs, but
sometimes it doesn't, which is very confusing. Pr also hangs, but for
some strange reason, head works in the same script!
Does anybody have any idea what I am doing wrong? This should always
work fine, but sometimes it doesn't.
