Louis,
I have no idea what information you are trying to ask about. The best I can do
is guess that you mean how can a script get typed in information.
Well there is no command built into OS-9 as such. There is a command (probably
written by Boisy) called "prompt" which echos a message and waits for a key-press.
Shellplus permits the use of variables which could be obtained with 'prompt' or
a variation of that command. Those variables could then be used in a script.
Would you describe what you want in more detail?
Robert
