notice the space character, which may be a problem.
further, you have indented the code, which is not entirely possible with here-documents: the closing "EOF" must be at the beginning of the line:
Code:
# this will work:
command .... <<EOF
text to send to command
EOF
# but this will not, because of the last line:
command .... <<EOF
text to send to command
EOF
You can use indented closing clauses if you prepend the opening clause with a minus sign:
Code:
# this will work:
command .... <<-WORKSTOO
text to send to command
WORKSTOO
but don't know if this is the case in ksh too, i only know for sure it works in bash.
I suggest you go over this script (which has some other design deficits too)
with someone knowledgeable to make it better written.

isaexec
isaexec(3C) Standard C Library Functions isaexec(3C)NAME
isaexec - invoke isa-specific executable
SYNOPSIS
#include <unistd.h>
int isaexec(const char *path, char *const argv[], char *const envp[]);
DESCRIPTION
The isaexec() function takes the path specified as path and breaks it into directory and file name components. It enquires from the running
system the list of supported instruction set architectures; see isalist(5). The function traverses the list for an executable file in named
subdirectories of the original directory. When such a file is located, execve() is invoked with argv[] and envp[]. See exec(2).
RETURN VALUES
If no file is located, isaexec() returns ENOENT. Other return values are the same as for execve().
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Example of isaexec() function.
On a system whose isalist is
sparcv7 sparc
the program
int
main(int argc, char *argv[], char *envp[])
{
return (isaexec("/bin/thing", argv, envp));
}
will look first for an executable file named /bin/sparcv7/thing, then for an executable file named /bin/sparc/thing. It will invoke
execve() on the first executable file it finds named thing.
On that same system, a program called /u/bin/tofu can cause either /u/bin/sparcv7/tofu or /u/bin/sparc/tofu to be invoked using the follow-
ing code:
int
main(int argc, char *argv[], char *envp[])
{
return (isaexec(getexecname(), argv, envp));
}
