That's a good idea if the program doesn't have return arguments.

: Re: [U2] [AD] UniBasic Program with arguments
Well,
actually you can, sort of :
LIST VOC SAMPLE 1 EVAL SUBR('your.subroutine', arg1 , arg2 )
Then we can argue forever if this is really running from TCl
or what. ;^)
And IIRC this has been mentioned on the list before.

Clever but not quite there...
That would only work if the subroutine used arg 1 as a return argument.
the orig. post was to run subroutine from command line ???
exactly what does the user expect this subroutine to do ???

Thanks all you guys for all your replies.
This list has come to my rescue so many times. I have so much more to
learn.
I realized that I can run my program (with args) only as one of the
following (without any external utitlity) :

This is actually pretty simple in UniData - UniBasic. The call to
'SYSTEM(17)' tells you whether you're running from the command line or
as a called routine. Here's a program I wrote along these lines.
SUBROUTINE GET.UDT.OPTION(RES, OPTNO)
* GET.UDT.OPTION - Get the value of one specific
Here it is, pretty quickly.
Create a Databasic Program, I call mine PRINT (losing regard for PRINT being
there). That is a simple program that takes the @COMMAND or PROCREAD or
TCLREAD line you just typed as the first line in a Basic program, throw an
END at the end, compile and run itself.
In short - you can't.
That is, you need to call it from another program... something like...
0001: CALL XYZ (ARG1, ARG2)
0002: END
Depending upon how you have written this routine it may be possible to
call it from a Dictionary item also but that is for another e-mail.

for over 20 years.

You'll have to write a wrapper that translates the two command line
parameters into subroutine arguments.

You can not run it directly from the command prompt. There were a
number of options that were given in this list not that long ago that
would let you test external subroutines but they all require some kind
of priming process.

Hi, Savita. I presume you mean running the program from TCL (:), the U2
command prompt.
In UniData there are two built-in variables, synonyms actually, named
@SENTENCE and @COMMAND. These contain the raw command line used to
invoke your subroutine.
I usually TRIM this (to eliminate multiple
