1) You forgot to quote. 2) You have somehow managed to set IFS to a value which contains . To fix this: 1) Use quotes when they are needed. less "$File1" will suppress all IFS-based splitting. 2) IFS=$' \t\n' or unset IFS
I see... I've gotten into some bad habits then, I guess! Yes, found some bad code setting IFS=. for some reason, fixed! Thank you!
