If /tmp/temp.exe is just a copy of $INPUT_FILE, then
why not just execute $INPUT_FILE ?
And what do you really mean by "execute" since you
appear to be "sourcing" (with the dot) /tmp/temp.exe
rather than running it? Do you want to run it?

This description is different from the pseudocode in your original post.
So i can only assume what you might want to do:
#! /bin/ksh
INPUTFILE=/path/to/inputfile #adjust
a=5
while read -r cmd ; do
while [ "$a" -gt `ps -ef |grep -c [i]mp` ] ; do
sleep 2 ## adjust
done
eval $cmd
done <$INPUT_FILE

When counting Oracle imp processes, if ps | grep imp matches
itself, then the count will be wrong. Do you [the OP] have the pgrep command?
Is the purpose is to start new imp commands as the old ones finish,
whilst keeping the load bearable?
There might be a better way of measuring the load on Oracle
of these imp [import] processes -- ask in comp.databases.oracle.server
You probably want to run these processes in the background.
If the sleep is long, then there might be an unnecessarily long
delay when more than one new process can be started (like right
at the beginning, or if several running imp's end at the same time).
(If the sleep is short compared to the run-time of an imp process,
then this does not matter.)
John.

Thus the [] in the grep command: When making the match, grep willQuote:> When counting Oracle imp processes, if ps | grep imp matches

An alternative way to do this is
... | grep -c imp | grep -v grep ...
but this is longer for only minor (if any) benefit.

Tombstone: Here lies an atheist; all dressed up and no place to go.
I am trying to build on an example in the O'Reilly book on 'sed'
and 'awk', but not getting anywhere. The example is the script
'filesum' starting on page 160.
Even the following script fails:
=====
#!/bin/csh -f
ls -l $* | nawk '{ \
BEGIN { print "BYTES" } ; \
{ sum += $5 ; \
++filenum ; \
print $5 } \
}'
======
even though it works without the BEGIN line. I have very
limited experience with 'awk' (just simple one liners').
Checking various websites did not help. Any pointers
on where to look up on the use of 'awk' within C shell
scripts would be welcome.
thanks
