We should probably get rid of using shell scripts for application programs
altogether, for a number of reasons besides this one, such as the
inability to properly handle input values with spaces, commas, etc. (we
probably don't handle very long values either on some platforms), the
inability to maintain open database connections so that createlang needs
to prompt for the same password thrice, general portable scripting
headaches, and the lack of internationalization facilities.
I'd even volunteer to do this. Comments?
