I am having problem looping over a sed command. I have multiple inputs defined in files.txt and those are used in the input and should be in the output filename as defines in $FILE

mapfile -s 1 -t files < files.txt
echo "${files[@]}"

for FILE in ${files[@]}; do

sed -n '/^>Gene-$FILE/{p;n;p}' mature.dna.fa > mature.dna.$FILE.fa;
done

files.txt

Use double quotes, not single quotes, so the variable will be expanded. – Barmar May 10 '19 at 18:30

Not sure what the question is, but you're missing a `done` to terminate the loop. – William Pursell May 10 '19 at 18:30
