Ksh Associating scripts
Im writing a script in the Ksh, as the title suggests.

OK so im sincerely tring to be lazy. Im trying to make a script that will use another file as a sort of variable library

So basically i dont need to include the variables themselves, just want to make a reference to the file, so the shell will read it. understand the variables. And all i need to do is simply reference them

So as an example

File
------
A=I
B=Love
C=YOU

------------------
Ksh Script

Echo "$A"
I
Echo "$B"
LOVE
Echo "$C"
You


Is there an #Include File or something equivelant that will work?

service

service(8)						      System Manager's Manual							service(8)

NAME

       service - run a System V init script

SYNOPSIS

       service SCRIPT COMMAND [OPTIONS]

       service --status-all

       service --help | -h | --version

DESCRIPTION

       service	runs a System V init script in as predictable an environment as possible, removing most environment variables and with the current
       working directory set to /.

       The SCRIPT parameter specifies a System V init script, located in /etc/init.d/SCRIPT.  The  supported  values  of  COMMAND  depend  on  the
       invoked	script.  service passes COMMAND and OPTIONS to the init script unmodified.  All scripts should support at least the start and stop
       commands.  As a special case, if COMMAND is --full-restart, the script is run twice, first with the stop command, then with the start  com-
       mand.

       service --status-all runs all init scripts, in alphabetical order, with the status command.

EXIT CODES

       service calls the init script and returns the status returned by it.

FILES

       /etc/init.d
	      The directory containing System V init scripts.

ENVIRONMENT

       LANG, TERM
	      The only environment variables passed to the init scripts.

SEE ALSO

       /etc/init.d/skeleton,
       update-rc.d(8),
       init(8),
       invoke-rc.d(8).
