trying to look up files in directories with wildcard *, and put the names into an array
the files have similar names (MATCHr1, MATCHr2 ... )
the problem arises when the file does not exist (which is a possibility)
set command returns a "no match" error and terminates the loop
if this happens how can i get it handle the error by jumping to the next iteration?
set SUBIDS = (10003 10005 10006)
foreach SUBID ($SUBIDS)
foreach SEQR ( MATCH ENC NBACK SIMON FACE )
ls -l *${SEQR}*.nii.gz
set Array = *${SEQR}*.nii.gz
echo $Array[*]
....rest of code works to use contents of Array to create text files
and works great when the *${SEQR}*.nii.gz
returns a file name
but fails when the no matches are made with the wildcard
Any help would be well apreciated
thanks!
you can do you ls and check the $status (or $STATUS, depends on your system) flag:
ls -l *${SEQR}*.nii.gz >> /dev/null ; if !$status then ...
