For further reference, the simple solution is always the best one. I now have the following: COUNT=0 for URL in `grep "^https" ${INFILE}`; do process ${URL} if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then COUNT=`expr ${COUNT} + 1` fi done echo "URLs processed: ${COUNT}" There now is no piping step (and therefore no subshell) involved. This works and can be easily extended (more preprocessing from the input list file). I have no idea why I didn't think of this in the first place... :-) -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
