If so, a 'here document' is probably what you need. Here's a complete tutorial: ===========tutorial=========== #!/bin/bash a="Aaaaa" b=junk cat >ex1.txt <<EOF Substitution This line contains $a This line contains $b EOF echo "==== ex1.txt ====" cat ex1.txt echo "=================" cat >ex2.txt <<"FINISH" No substitution This line contains $a This line contains $b FINISH echo "==== ex2.txt ====" cat ex2.txt echo "=================" rm ex[12].txt =======end of tutorial======== Substitution in the here document is controlled by the presence or absence of quotes round the here document delimiter (EOF in my examples). This is a tested example: cut 'n paste into a file, make it executable with chmod and experiment with it. Martin
