Maybe something like this?
if `echo $i | awk '{print substr($i,6,5)}'` = "START"
I have not tried it. I'm just guessing. :) But seriously, the
substring function of awk (substr) jumped to mind. You might be able to
leverage it. I don't have my bash book handy, but there is probably a
more elegant way to handle this directly in bash.
