You are not wrong. This is a feature we'd like to add but haven't
gotten to yet.

another pig-script from a pig-script. How can I do that.
As far as I understand, you can call a pig script from a unix-shell (
or windows ) passing those parameters, but not from another pig-script
? I would be glad to be proved wrong. I wish I am wrong :)

Hi Prasen,
If the only thing changing is the input and/or output, you can
parametrize
your script so that you can easily re-use your script with parameter
substitution.

Is there a way to reuse a pig scripts ( like def:: in python or
function calls etc) from inside a calling pig script. I have a
set of
basic pig script which I would like to call from a high-level
pig-script. Currently I have to copy/paste exact same set of code
with
different input relation. This makes the code unnecessary bulky
and is
error prone. Even a macro def will be a great help.
-Thanks,
