passing runtime arguments to a shell script...

hi I am new to shell programming.....my question is while running one of my shell program it stops in between to accept input from the user and proceeds furthur after giving input....I want to know whether I can set this input through some files so that the shell acript reads the input from the file and will not prompt the user to input the required data...the input is a text...is there any other possibilities using pipes....

thanks in advance Smilie

NAME
anytopnm - attempt to convert an unknown type of image file to a portable anymap SYNOPSIS
anytopnm [file] DESCRIPTION
anytopnm converts the input image, which may be in any of dozens of graphics formats, to PBM, PGM, or PPM format, depending on that nature of the input image, and outputs it to Standard Output. To determine the format of the input, anytopnm uses the file program (possibly assisted by the magic numbers file fragment included with Netpbm). If that fails (very few image formats have magic numbers), anytopnm looks at the filename extension. If that fails, anytopnm punts. The type of the output file depends on the input image. If file indicates that the input file is compressed (either via Unix compress, gzip, or bzip compression), anytopnm uncompresses it and proceeds as above with the uncompressed result. If file indicates that the input file is encoded by uuencode or btoa, anytopnm decodes it and proceeds as above with the decoded result. If file is - or not given, anytopnm takes its input from Standard Input. SEE ALSO
