Heyas
A variable within a loop doesnt get updated - eventhough the 'inputfile' changes.
I have a tempfile ($TMP.playstatus), which contains this data:
Where constantly a new line is appended.
I have this semi working:
Deleted stuff (previous tries):
Regardless of what i try, the
$CUR -value is read properly only the first time - so it seems to me, but afterwards it remains the same/doesnt change...
As in, beeing spamed with:
OR, almost the same:
To my understanding the variable
$CUR should be updated just before its
echo 'd within each loop.
Any advice/ideas please?
Thank you in advance

Maybe this different output helps:
Outputs as:
Since the background job is told to redirect its output to
$STATUS i thought after the cleaning the new lines would still be added.
Even when i DELETE the tempfile ($STATUS), it doesnt read a value while the files doesnt exist, and after... it jumps back to the first value (0.01), as if its 0.01 was even on the lowest line...
