in reply to Re^2: passing arguments between scripts
in thread passing arguments between scripts

So in a nutshell:

Script 1 executes script 2 and passes two pieces of information to it? Ok, cutting out the noise somewhat you have something like this:
script 1: my $script2 = ...; # including dir as required my $param1 = ...; my $param2 = ...; system("$script2 \"$param1\" \"$param2\""); script 2: my $param1 = shift; #Pull off the first command line argument my $param2 = shift; #Pull off the second command line argument #do stuff with $param1 and $param2

Perl is Huffman encoded by design.
