Re^2: backticks - bash instead of sh

The command I'm trying to run is paste filename <(cut -d \" \" -f 2 filename2 | grep -v mean) >> filename3

Even if I begin with `/bin/bash ...` I get "sh: Syntax error: "(" unexpected".

Write it in Perl, or just use a bash file and call it through perl. I don't think this is a hard job to do in perl. You'll have to read tow files and output them in 1 file... and this has been done many times before over here ... use the search button in the top of the site to look that up	[reply]
