There is a while construct for the shell.
read is bash built in function which can read a line from stdin.
but it only takes space delimited data
#!/bin/sh
while read var1 var2
do
echo $var1 $var2
done
This might help you reach EOF as an example, I would rather prefer you
to write a small perl script
