Does the version of the bash shell used in busybox have array support compiled in?  I'm trying to convert a script of mine over to run on my wrt but am having issues, and could use a working example if someone has something.  Specifically, I'm needing to set up an array of strings containing URLs.

Thanks in advance!

ash does not support arrays. use awk

Hi Jim,
This works for me-

#!/bin/ash

ARRAY=" \
http://openwrt.org \
http://wiki.openwrt.org \
"
i=1

for j in $ARRAY
do
        echo $i: $j
        i=`expr $i + 1`
done

Hope this helps,
Charlie

No one to help me?

Unfortunately, that is not a true array, so you cannot specify one value within it. It is actually nothing but a list, or to be more precise, it is a string which is broken into a list by the "for" line in the example script.

Bash has arrays, but ash does not.
