Question

I have the following way to submit a job with cluster using qsub:

 Submitting jobs from standard input        To submit a PBS job by typing job specifications at the command line, the user types                qsub [options] <return>         then types any directives, then any tasks, followed by                (in UNIX)     CTRL-D on a line by itself               (in Windows)  CTRL-Z <return>         to terminate the input. 

Is there a way we can encode RETURN and CTRL-D in bash script so that we can do something like:

for i in path/*.txt; do echo '$i';  qsub [RETURN] /path2/mycode $i; [CTRL-D]; done 

Answer 1

You should use redirection through pipes:

for i in path/*.txt; do   echo '$i';   echo '/path2/mycode $i' | qsub; done
