calling a unix shell script from sqlplus

I want to execute a shell script from sqlplus prompt and get its output back to sqlplus. Is this possible?

if yes just give me an example for doing that.

The host command lets you run unix commands from inside sqlplus.

But I don't think that is what you want. What exactly are you trying to do?

For example: You can pass information from a shell script to a sqlplus command being run inside the script itself.
