Is there any way of splitting the script (Noob Here).
I m writing a script to check Server Hardening.
The problem is whenever i add new point it grows and it become very tedious to edit the script file.
Is there any way of making them separate and call them from one base script?
Is it possible to define global variable that can be accessed via all the scripts?
Never done this kind of scripting little reference would be appreciated.
(The idea come to my mind while watching the execution of lynis tool the scripts were given different tasks and all were called from a main base script)

tcl_allowexceptions
Tcl_AllowExceptions(3) Tcl Library Procedures Tcl_AllowExceptions(3)
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
NAME
Tcl_AllowExceptions - allow all exceptions in next script evaluation
SYNOPSIS
#include <tcl.h>
Tcl_AllowExceptions(interp)
ARGUMENTS
Tcl_Interp *interp (in) Interpreter in which script will be evaluated.
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
If a script is evaluated at top-level (i.e. no other scripts are pending evaluation when the script is invoked), and if the script termi-
nates with a completion code other than TCL_OK, TCL_ERROR or TCL_RETURN, then Tcl normally converts this into a TCL_ERROR return with an
appropriate message. The particular script evaluation procedures of Tcl that act in the manner are Tcl_EvalObjEx, Tcl_EvalObjv, Tcl_Eval,
Tcl_EvalEx, Tcl_GlobalEval, Tcl_GlobalEvalObj, Tcl_VarEval and Tcl_VarEvalVA.
However, if Tcl_AllowExceptions is invoked immediately before calling one of those a procedures, then arbitrary completion codes are per-
mitted from the script, and they are returned without modification. This is useful in cases where the caller can deal with exceptions such
as TCL_BREAK or TCL_CONTINUE in a meaningful way.
KEYWORDS
continue, break, exception, interpreter
Tcl 7.4 Tcl_AllowExceptions(3)
