Readin document & creating path

Shell Programming and Scripting
1

Need a way to read a file in who every line is a path to a directory and make shortcut to that directory on a specific place.

Example:
line in the document

/media/gogo/6651-FEAB/Desktop/ 
/media/gogo/6651-FEAB/Desktop/alex/ 
/media/gogo/6651-FEAB/linux/ 
/media/gogo/6651-FEAB/eks/HDD.Regenerator.2011-RES/INFOS/

and i need a way to crate a shortcut in a folder to every line ( path ) from the code above.
to

/media/gogo/6651-FEAB/Desktop

need a shortcut in

/home/Document/Shortcut/

and for name of the shortcut need the path it self ( /media/gogo/6651-FEAB/Desktop ), it should look like this -- > for

/media/gogo/6651-FEAB/Desktop

-->

/home/Document/Shortcut/#media#gogo#6651-FEAB#Desktop

( i know "/" cant be used for a name of directory & file ).
Same for the second line:
for

/media/gogo/6651-FEAB/Desktop/alex

-->

/home/Document/Shortcut/#media#gogo#6651-FEAB#Desktop#alex

and soo on until the file end. Someone up for the task :confused:

ps: the name may not be the name of the path it self actually it could be a whatever, like for the first line 1, second 2 and soo on...

#! /bin/bash

while read path
do
    lnNm=${path//\//#}
    lnNm=${lnNm%#}
    ln -s "$path" "/home/Document/Shortcut/$lnNm"
done < file

Cant get it work. The document is in /home/gogo/Document/gara1

i try

ln: failed to create symbolic link `/home/gogo/Document/Shortcut/#media#gogo#6651-FEAB#Desktop': No such file or directory
ln: failed to create symbolic link `/home/gogo/Document/Shortcut/#media#gogo#6651-FEAB': No such file or directory

I think the problem is that directory must be made before it can get linked but not sure :confused:

Try this:

#! /bin/bash
while read var
do
    lnNm=${var//\//#}
    lnNm=${lnNm%#}
    ln -s "$var" "/home/Document/Shortcut/$lnNm" 
done < /home/gogo/Document/gara1
