Hi,
I need help to create a small csh script.
I have a text file (codes.txt) contains :

I want to read it one line at a time, and pass it as parameter <code> to a command line:
command -F -x <code> | wc -l
Thanks for any help.

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
