[Solved] How to refer more than 9 command line inputs for a scripts in korn shell?

Hi all,

I have a script which should take more than 9 command line inputs while running. Like
Code:
script.sh a s d f g h j j k l o p i u y t r e w

Now in the script if I have to access one of the input which is at position after 9, in this case say 'p' then how can I do that?
Code:
echo $12

will not work as 1 & 2 would be taken as two independent numbers. I found a suggestion to mention
Code:
echo ${12}

but I guess it is for Bourne shell and for me on Korn shell it it is giving error as: script.sh: bad substitution

Can you please help me on this or direct me to a place when I can get more information.

Thanks,
Pat

Locale::Codes::LangFam(3pm)				 Perl Programmers Reference Guide			       Locale::Codes::LangFam(3pm)

NAME
Locale::Codes::LangFam - standard codes for language extension identification SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Codes::LangFam; $lext = code2langfam('apa'); # $lext gets 'Apache languages' $code = langfam2code('Apache languages'); # $code gets 'apa' @codes = all_langfam_codes(); @names = all_langfam_names(); DESCRIPTION
The "Locale::Codes::LangFam" module provides access to standard codes used for identifying language families, such as those as defined in ISO 639-5. Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 639-5 language family codes will be used. SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying language families. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a constant that is automatically exported by this module. For example, the two are equivalent: $lext = code2langfam('apa','alpha'); $lext = code2langfam('apa',LOCALE_LANGFAM_ALPHA); The codesets currently supported are: alpha This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) codes from ISO 639-5 such as 'apa' for Apache languages. This is the default code set. ROUTINES
