Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Pass C shell array to another C shell script(csh) and shell(sh) Post 302980188 by bakunin on Thursday 25th of August 2016 04:10:38 AM

First off, the standard warning about C-shell scripts applies. Avoid using this buggy shell if you can and use (most preferably) Korn Shell or bash or (second-best alternatives) tcsh, zsh, or any other shell.

The keyword for this is source. When you use it and give it a file as parameter like:

Code:
source /path/to/file

the file with the specified name is executed in the same environment your calling script runs in. This way, if you set some variable inside "/path/to/file", it will be set in your calling script.

I hope this helps.
