Continuing my fight with arguments and spaces, consider a directory with 3 other directories

  • 0

Continuing my fight with arguments and spaces, consider a directory with 3 other
directories and a script:

Folder One
Folder Two
Folder Three
script

And script follows:

#!/bin/bash
for i in $@
do
    echo $i
done

When running it as:

./script *

I get this output:

Folder
One
Folder
Two
Folder
Three
script

Is there some way to get this output:

Folder One
Folder Two
Folder Three
script

In other words, not to split the arguments $@ on spaces?

    Try this:

    #!/bin/bash
    for i in "$@"
    do
        echo $i
    done
