The arguments to your program can be specified by the arguments of the
run
command.
They are passed to a shell, which expands wildcard characters and
performs redirection of I/O, and thence to your program. Your
SHELL
environment variable (if it exists) specifies what shell
uses. If you do not define SHELL
, uses
the default shell (`/bin/sh' on Unix).
On non-Unix systems, the program is usually invoked directly by , which emulates I/O redirection via the appropriate system calls, and the wildcard characters are expanded by the startup code of the program, not by the shell.
run
with no arguments uses the same arguments used by the previous
run
, or those set by the set args
command.
set args
set args
has no arguments, run
executes your program
with no arguments. Once you have run your program with arguments,
using set args
before the next run
is the only way to run
it again without arguments.
show args
Go to the first, previous, next, last section, table of contents.
