I cannot give parameter as $1 $2 $3 $4 on the wrapper script because it may vary. wrapper script is a individual script can be run from anywhere if copied along with 4 other scripts. So user can give different arguments to it depending on the requirement for example.
one user may give dest_dir, source_dir and user_id different than other user and thts the case most of the time.

It cannot be interactive also so we cannot prompt its supposed to be automated. I believe there is some way to do that by wrapper script

About that get opt example I dint get much of it. Would you mind telling me how it works.

thanks alot

quake-server

QUAKE-SERVER(6) 						   Games Manual 						   QUAKE-SERVER(6)

NAME

       quake-server - dedicated server for Quake

SYNOPSIS

       quake-server [WRAPPER-OPTIONS] [ENGINE-OPTIONS] [ENGINE-COMMANDS]...

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the quake-server command.

       Quake  is  a  popular  first-person shooter game that appeared in 1996, released by iD Software.  This wrapper script will launch the Quake
       dedicated server.

       The game data needs to be installed independently using the 'game-data-packager'  program,  and	by  default  it  will  be  looked  for	at
       /usr/share/games/quake.

       This  wrapper  script  accepts the two common GNU-style options to get information on the program.  Any further arguments are passed to the
       engine unmodified.  Consult the engine documentation for full details, but most engines support a syntax whereby engine switches  are  pre-
       fixed with a minus sign, and you can give console commands by prefixing with a plus sign.  See the examples section for some common cases.

OPTIONS

       These options are accepted for WRAPPER-OPTIONS in the synopsis.

       -h, --help
	      Show summary of options.

       -v, --version
	      Show version of program.

SEE ALSO

       quake(6), quakespasm(6), game-data-packager(6).

AUTHOR

       This  manual  page, and the Quake wrapper script, were written by David Banks and Simon McVittie for the Debian project (and may be used by
       others).
