Question

I am trying to create a html out of several html files, but that’s not my problem because this is working fine. The Problem is, that the Code I have written so far is writing all the several html files into one single html, but I only want to combine 5 html into one. If the one html file, which will be generated contains more then 5 html files, then it should create a new html file and so one…get it?

Answer 1

This assumes that you want t1.html, t2.html etc.

idx=0
counter=0
target=
for file in *; do
    if [ $((counter%5)) -eq 0 ]; then
        idx=$((idx+1))
        target=t${idx}.html
    fi
    # write to $target
    counter=$((counter+1))
done
