I am using the following script to unshorten urls in my file : shortened_urls.txt
cat shortened_urls.txt | xargs -n 1 curl -x 23.100.73.22 samemon:PasSworD@myprivateproxy.net:15213 -Ls -I -o /dev/null -w %{url_effective}'\n' > unshortened.txt & wait
Now my file shortened_urls.txt contains say 4000 urls. How can I insert some waits of say 1 second after each url is unshortened.
