----------------------------------------

Hi Sylvain,
I'm still in the process of reading the code and doc. I'll try to come up with 
a POC for "Having a way to propagate values from the calling context to an ij 
script. Using positional parameters $1, $2, etc." , the use case you mentioned 
first.
Thanks,
Denis

> It would be nice to be able to parameterize ij scripts. At a high level, this

> connect 'jdbc:derby:$1;user=$2;password=$3';
> insert into $4( a ) values ( $5 );
> or something like this:
> connect 'jdbc:derby:${dbname};user=${user};password=${password}';
> insert into ${tableName} values ( ${intValue} );
