Question Calling shell script ?

hi friends,
i'm new to unix and straight away i had to start with the script files.
I've a script file which gets called from a menu item on a GUI.

This script file again calls .awk file, in performing some tasks , which also generates certain files.

I modified the files to generate some other files. I'm not able to see these files when run thru' menu, in the sense that the modified script is not run from the menu.

When i run the same script file from shell prompt, the files are generated.

How do i know that a given script file is called from the menu item?

Thanking you in anticipation.
ravi.

From menu if the old-script is working fine then there is something

wrong in your modification.

send us breifly what you have modified..

The condition is that from menu the the files should be generated
as before...


Good luck
