Always a few ways to so something, and each one is a good one. Some who seek the solution that involve the least CPU time may have a preference. But for most of us that is not an issue. As long as it works as expected, it's a good solution... By the way I noted a typo in my suggestion. In the beginning I use ORIGINAL_IFS for my variable, but for the suggested last line of the script I had IFS=$ORIGINAL. That should have been IFS=$ORGINAL_IFS.
