HERE_DOCUMENT
How to create a file on the fly

HERE_DOCUMENT contains examples which illustrate the use of "here documents".

A "here document" is a method for creating a small file as part of a job script. This is usually a convenience for dealing with situations in which a single job script is desired, but where the job script from time to time needs to "feed" small input files to other commands it invokes. A "here document" is a method of creating such a file by listing its contents as part of the script.

HERE_GCC_LOCAL is an example, to be run "locally", in which a tiny C program is created as a "here document" using the cat command, then compiled with GCC and executed.

• here_gcc_local.sh, a BASH shell script.
• here_gcc_local_output.txt, the output file.

HERE_GCC_MOAB is an example, to be run on a MOAB cluster, in which a tiny C program is created as a "here document" using the cat command, then compiled with GCC and executed.

• here_gcc_moab.sh, a BASH shell script for MOAB.
• here_gcc_moab_output.txt, the output file.

HERE_GFORTRAN_LOCAL is an example, to be run "locally", in which a tiny FORTRAN90 program is created as a "here document" using the cat command, then compiled with GFORTRAN and executed.

• here_gfortran_local.sh, a BASH shell script.
• here_gfortran_local_output.txt, the output file.

HERE_GFORTRAN_MOAB is an example, to be run on a MOAB cluster, in which a tiny FORTRAN90 program is created as a "here document" using the cat command, then compiled with GFORTRAN and executed.

• here_gfortran_moab.sh, a BASH shell script for MOAB.
• here_gfortran_moab_output.txt, the output file.
