shci is a utility (for use from the shell) that takes the command line and passes it to the HPCICOMMAND intrinsic. I wrote it because "callci tell ..." didn't work correctly. Author: sieler@allegrosupport.com History: 2014-08-25 Added HELP, VERSION, VERSIONN entrypoints 2001-01-11 First version Examples: (assuming shci is in your path) shci showtime shci tell stan.sieler hi shci "tell stan.sieler; hi & bye" Returns: shci calls HPCICOMMAND...if an error occurs, it is displayed on $stdlist, and the CI error is returned as the result. This is visible in the shell as shell variable $? E.g.: >shci badname Unknown command name. (CIERR 975) >echo $? 207 SHCI checks the first parameter to see if it's one of: -d or -debug -h or -help -v or -version -versionn ...and treats such a parameter differently. shci 20140825
