Hello Bill et al,
The arguments are as many as 20 to 25 ... a typo here or there could create
havoc ... get.sh is a widely used script ... it takes of many things in the
workflow here but ... the parameter no. is huge ... but the sad part is the
workflow still requires these parameters !!!
is there no way we can pass a value from perl to a shell-script???
Best,
Ukh

If you can modify get.sh to check for ARGV parameters, you could
also just pass the args in on the commandline and bypass all the
hard stuff.
system "/some/path/get.sh arg1 arg2 arg3 arg4";
