> BASH builtin for retrieving data from standard input
|
||||
|
||||
- Store data that you type from the keyboard:
|
||||
|
||||
`read {{variable}}`
|
||||
|
||||
- Store each of the next lines you enter as values of an array:
|
||||
|
||||
`read -a {{array}}
|
||||
|
||||
- Enable backspace and GNU readline hotkeys when entering input with read:
|
||||
|
||||
`read -e {{variable}}
|
||||
|
||||
- Specify the number of maximum characters to be read:
|
||||
|
||||
`read -n {{character_count}} {{variable}}
|
||||
|
||||
- Use a specific character as a delimiter instead of a new line:
|
||||
|
||||
`read -d {{delimiter}} {{variable}}
