Perhaps I don't understand the problem, but this looks like a strange approach.
It looks to me as if you want to generate sets of customised scripts using parameter files to define any variable items. Wouldn't it be easier to create a set of standard scripts with all the variable items parameterised and pick up the values from a file or the command line?
cheers
