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.

Working on Solaris.
