$argv replace both of these. $argv is also the parameter list for functions. In what way is it less accessible? $argv is slightly different from both - it's an array, with one element for each argument. You can get e.g. the fifth srgument from $argv[5], or the first three arguments from $argv[(seq 3)]. > > $# - The number of arguments passed to the shell (Got this by user count of > agrv, an argc would be nice) (count $argv) > > $$ - The id of the present process > > $! – The ID of the last background process Use the 'jobs -l' to save the pid of a process after starting it.
