Passing variables between sub-scripts
I have written a program for some data analysis. It is gettin long. I would like to restructure it so that i can have a master file which controls multiple subscripts in order to make it easier to understand.
I need to be able to define variables in the master script which are used by all three subscripts.
How do I pass common variables between all these scripts?
My a simplified master file would look like:
./Process_Input_Files
./Create_Input_Deck
./Format_Input_Deck

kstash
KSTASH(8) BSD System Manager's Manual KSTASH(8)
NAME
kstash -- store the KDC master password in a file
SYNOPSIS
kstash [-e string | --enctype=string] [-k file | --key-file=file] [--convert-file] [--random-key] [--master-key-fd=fd] [--random-key]
[-h | --help] [--version]
DESCRIPTION
kstash reads the Kerberos master key and stores it in a file that will be used by the KDC.
Supported options:
-e string, --enctype=string
the encryption type to use, defaults to DES3-CBC-SHA1.
-k file, --key-file=file
the name of the master key file.
--convert-file
don't ask for a new master key, just read an old master key file, and write it back in the new keyfile format.
--random-key
generate a random master key.
--master-key-fd=fd
filedescriptor to read passphrase from, if not specified the passphrase will be read from the terminal.
FILES
/var/heimdal/m-key is the default keyfile if no other keyfile is specified. The format of a Heimdal master key is the same as a keytab, so
ktutil list can be used to list the content of the file.
