RE: CLOSING Re: Obtaining complete Unix command line that evoked script as string

So sorry to see you go. There's nothing bad about me unsubscribing (you're reading me very negatively!). Its just I get so much mail that I prefer to unsubscribe and browse HTML archives if I'm not actively asking something. The only cross-platform, foolproof way of keeping track of the c

RE: CLOSING Re: Obtaining complete Unix command line that evoked script as string

So sorry to see you go. The only cross-platform, foolproof way of keeping track of the command-line used to launch a program regardless of the complexity that I can think of is to make a note of it in the program that launched the command-line. If you really wanted to, you could even pass it as
