typically i'll use bash script.name.sh | ncat localhost 3505


typically i'll use bash script.name.sh | ncat localhost 3505

Something like this should work, point it at the root folder, for example if i have /home/mf/jobs/hts0314.job.nmvs.cntl it would run this script like bash build_jcl.sh /home/mf/jobs
if [ -z "$1" ]; then
    base_folder='./'
else
    base_folder=$1
