Start all of your commands with a comma (2009)

Just env vars?

    env > "$(date +s).env-snapshot"

(And use it again slightly more awkwardly as

    <$file | xargs -I@ echo '"@"' | tr '\n' ' ' | xargs -I@ env @ cmd

or something more convenient to `cmd`.)

Should be

  <$file xargs ...

Oops, you've exposed that it started off as a useless cat I knew I'd be chastised for ;)

If it is any consolation, I can't make any sense of this.

  $ <xyz.txt wc -l
         8
  
  $ <xyz.txt | wc -l
         0
