Re: {bb} environment problems on SCO Unix

[Nigel Lee <nigel@one.net.au>]

Hi All,

Does anyone know how to extend the environment variables in Sco Unix?

I'm tring to send $BB $BBDISP "`cat $BBTMP/bb.stuff`"
bb.stuff a 129 line file:
(# ls -l tmp/bb.stuff
-rw-r--r--    1 root     sys         8486 Jan 29 09:28 tmp/bb.stuff )

The error it is generating is:
UX:sh (bb-local.sh): ERROR: /usr/local/bb/bin/bb: Arg list or environment too
large

Are there any alternatives??

Thanks

Nigel
