OK, this must be said.

You came to the monastery with a (badly-formed) question. Half a dozen monks each with decades of experience have pointed out that your basic premise is Wrong. Yet in every response you cling to that premise (without explaining the reasons for your misguided belief). I, for one, am finished trying to help you; as a matter of fact I don't think you will get any help here that will be of use to you until you open your mind to the possibility that you have made some incorrect assumptions.

"I have script where I need to do a system call ... the system call doesn't work"

Later ...

"it's a bit of a mess, but it works great so that's the most important"

🙄


The way forward always starts with a minimal test.
