moving files between directories !!

Shell Programming and Scripting

hi

i have a list of directory in a text file with all directories name in a column.(this is not exactly a file but i need to do a grep and awk on a file to find that list)

i have the source folders like

    abchome/abc/xxyz/nl_xxabc/mm/[directories list to pick up from a file]/ v01
    abchome/abc/xxyz/nl_xxabc/mm_new/[directories list to pick up from a file]/ v01
    abchome/abc/xxyz/nl_xxabc/mm_old/[directories list to pick up from a file]/ v01

out of 5 versions i need to move two versions.Lets say v03 and v05.

destination directories

abcprojs/abc/projs/mm/[directories similar to the list in that file]/

WHAT I WANT IS TO MOVE THE V01 TYPE OF DIRECTORIES FROM THE SOURCE TO DESTINATION BY A SHELL SCRIPT..

aNY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED..:frowning:
really need some detail answer..

How about this (remove the echo when your sure it's doing what you want):

while read subdir
do
  for v in v03 v05
  do
    for m in mm mm_new mm_old
    do
      [ -d abchome/abc/xxyz/nl_xxabc/$m/$subdir/$v ] &&
      [ -d abcprojs/abc/mm/$subdir ] &&
      echo mv abchome/abc/xxyz/nl_xxabc/$m/$subdir/$v abcprojs/abc/mm/$subdir/
    done
  done
done < dirlist.txt

Thanx for the replay
This is almost all what i need
but one thing i want to know..

as i already mention i need a grep and awk to find the directory list.
but i dont wantto use a file in between.
i have to put the standard output of this grep and awk to be put as input to the sctipt.

As you mentiond

done < dirlist.txt

in the last line..

This pattern generate the directory list

grep -v = $LLLTT/profile | awk '{print $1}'

how can i do this..?
:confused:

Like this:

grep -v = $LLLTT/profile | while read subdir junk
do
  for v in v03 v05
  do
    for m in mm mm_new mm_old
    do
      [ -d abchome/abc/xxyz/nl_xxabc/$m/$subdir/$v ] &&
      [ -d abcprojs/abc/mm/$subdir ] &&
      echo mv abchome/abc/xxyz/nl_xxabc/$m/$subdir/$v abcprojs/abc/mm/$subdir/
    done
  done
done
