Win shell cmd equivalent under bash

[Jurai]

Hi. Could someone show me how to perform the equivalent of the
following Windows shell command -> for /R %b in (*) do chdman copy -i
%~pnxb -o
\temp%~pnb <- under bash? Basically I need the bash equivalent of the
Windows 'for' command. TIA.

Not knowing what chdman does, no. It's not a Windows cmd shell
command that I know of.

See below for the basic for loop in bash, though.

That is easy:
http://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bashref.html#Looping-Constructs

eg:

for ITEM in # An expression giving a list;
do
# Something
# Eg:
echo "This is item: $ITEM"
done

I would not use an all caps variable as loop variable. All caps
variables are normally used for read-only variables.
