running .sh file from tcl

Post by whittinghamj »

ok I have a script which sets a few cars

set who "$nick"
set source "$channel"

and i need to pass those to a .sh file like thus

[exec file.sh $who $source]

this tclsh not eggtcl - i know this is egghelp but its for the most part the same code syntax.

I just need it the run like that - tclsh dont need proc's so we don use them.

any ideas anyone?

Check the tcl 'exec' manpage, which has examples for particular platforms (win, unix, etc). That suggests using
  • to build the commandline to pass to the shell if there's multiple args to pass along.
