I think i was not clear on my specification
I have two shell scripts.
The two output values returned by one shell script should be passed as arguments to another shell script
And I have used functions that returns one value which can be captured by using
Code:
s=`echo $?`
where in $? the returned value is stored
But if in case $? has two values how to return them is my problem
One way is I can use the intermediate file divert the outputs and grep for the required values and them into another script..
Is there any other direct way that returns multiple values from a shell function
I have an application on Informix 4GL, and I am invoking the shell script from the program, but I need to know if the shell script work fine or not, in order to continue the process.

script
script(1) User Commands script(1)NAME
script - make record of a terminal session
SYNOPSIS
script [-a] [filename]
DESCRIPTION
The script utility makes a record of everything printed on your screen. The record is written to filename. If no file name is given, the
record is saved in the file typescript. See WARNINGS.
The script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according to the value of $SHELL, and records the text from this session. The script ends
when the forked shell exits or when Control-d is typed.
OPTIONS
The following option is supported:
-a Appends the session record to filename, rather than overwriting it.
NOTES
script places everything that appears on the screen in filename, including prompts.
