shell script
I work for a small ISP and we are using Unix operating system with bash shell. I want to write a shell script to parse the csv file line by line. Then line must be parse again field by field. The sample input file is as follows:
example.com,username,groupname,homedir,md5password,permission,secondarygroup
I need to extract each of these example.com,username,groupname,homedir,md5password,permission,secondarygroup and passed to the different system utilities. How do I write a shell script to automate this task and use the bash shell parse a text file?

I‘m writing a bash wrapper script that will pass arguments to the command. I need to find out the last argument if I call the wrapper as follows:
./wrapper -a -b –longarg=foo thisfilename.txt
./wrapper -a -b thisfilename.txt
./wrapper -a –next=true thisfilename.txt
Where,
=> $@ is all of them.
=> $0 is script name.
=> $1 is first arg.
I want thisfilename.txt stored in a shell variable called $last. How do I find the last argument passed to a shell script written in bash or ksh under Unix like operating systems?
