Ok, I have constructed a script that boils down to a text file that
simply contains one i.p. address per line. For example:

192.154.123.23
123.234.22.22
22.0.1.1

Now, I want to write a script that performs
wget $ipaddr
for each ip address in the text file.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

That's perhaps a puzzler for *you*; for one thing, your text file is not a
script. It's best when asking for help to not to be a condescending jerk as
in your Subject: line..

"man bash" and pay attention to the "read" portion of "SHELL BUILTIN
COMMANDS".

Assumed the name of the text file that contains the IP addresses is
"ipfile", the following would do the trick:

for i in `cat ipfile`; do wget $i; done

Wouldn't that >$ wget $ipaddr --input-file filelist_of_ipaddresses
