    what about (for ksh)

    $ cat qwert ("your grep")
    qqq
    aaa
    yyy
    www
    sss
    xxx
    $ l=$(cat qwert | xargs)
    $ echo $l
    qqq aaa yyy www sss xxx
    $ set -A VAR $l # create array VAR with elements from "list" $l
    $ echo ${VAR[*]} # display all elements of VAR
    qqq aaa yyy www sss xxx
    $ echo ${#VAR[*]} # number of elements in VAR
    6
    $ echo ${VAR[0]} # first element has index 0
    qqq
    $ echo ${VAR[${#VAR[*]}-1]} # last element
    xxx

    Hello,

    Quick, simple korn shell question:

    I have the result of grep and cut commands that shows multiple lines. For
    example:

    345trh
    hur88
    kjsdhf
    eryyt9
    333ret

    How can I divide these lines to feed into variables? That is, each of the
    above lines needs to be assigned to a variable.

    Thanks
