# There are different method of splitting a string.
# Two of those methods are shown below
# a sample string delimeted by ";"
IN="FirstName=John; LastName=Doe; [email protected]"
# First method:
# splits the string on ';' and puts them into an array
person=$(echo $IN | tr ";" "\n")
# you can loop through the array
for info in $person
do
echo "> [$info]"
done
# Second method:
echo "$IN" | cut -d ";" -f 1 # returns the first part
echo "$IN" | cut -d ";" -f 2 # returns the second part
#and so on.
