continue...break
One can skip the rest of a loop and directly go to the next iteration with: "continue".
while read line
do
if [[ $line = *.gz ]];then
continue
else
print $line
fi
done
One can also prematurely leave a loop with: "break".
while read line;do
if [[ $line = *!(.c) ]];then
break
else
print $line
fi
done
