First off: you shouldn't. UNIX (any UNIX, including Linux) has a different way of separating text lines in a file , compared to Windows (any Windows-version). If you use (Windows-)
notepad.exe to write a file chances are you can't run it on Unix wiht some processing so you will be on the safer side writing the file with a UNIX-based editor on the system itself instead.

OK, but: show us the script! how are we supposed to tell you what is wrong with your script when we haven't seen it yet? Post the content of said
valsplit.sh and we will perhaps be able to tell you why it doesn't do what it should. Then you can correct it until it is working. But without having seen it we are like doctors who - instead of examining a patient - are just called by one with the information "it hurts". The reason for this can be everything and then some.

OK. Lets for now assume the thread is legitimate here. We still haven't seen your code and as long as that has not been changed we can't help you. So please post your code (put it in CODE-tags!!) and on we go.
I hope this helps.

tclsh(1) Tcl Applications tclsh(1)
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
NAME
tclsh - Simple shell containing Tcl interpreter
SYNOPSIS
tclsh ?-encoding name? ?fileName arg arg ...?
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
Tclsh is a shell-like application that reads Tcl commands from its standard input or from a file and evaluates them. If invoked with no
arguments then it runs interactively, reading Tcl commands from standard input and printing command results and error messages to standard
output. It runs until the exit command is invoked or until it reaches end-of-file on its standard input. If there exists a file .tclshrc
(or tclshrc.tcl on the Windows platforms) in the home directory of the user, interactive tclsh evaluates the file as a Tcl script just
before reading the first command from standard input.
SCRIPT FILES
If tclsh is invoked with arguments then the first few arguments specify the name of a script file, and, optionally, the encoding of the |
text data stored in that script file. Any additional arguments are made available to the script as variables (see below). Instead of
reading commands from standard input tclsh will read Tcl commands from the named file; tclsh will exit when it reaches the end of the
file. The end of the file may be marked either by the physical end of the medium, or by the character, "
