It's a utility that allows users to change their Oracle environments, so when they logon they can run the utility and select an Oracle environment to set (ORACLE_SID, ORACLE_HOME, etc). It also allows them to change environments, say going from DEV to TEST. I have a Korn shell script that does this but I was trying to rewrite it in Perl.
