# This library is no longer being maintained, and is included for backward
# compatibility with Perl 4 programs which may require it.
#
# In particular, this should not be used as an example of modern Perl
# programming techniques.
#
#
# Author: Charles Collins
#
# Description:
# This routine takes a shell script and 'dots' it into the current perl
# environment. This makes it possible to use existing system scripts
# to alter environment variables on the fly.
#
# Usage:
# &dotsh ('ShellScript', 'DependentVariable(s)');
#
# where
#
# 'ShellScript' is the full name of the shell script to be dotted
#
# 'DependentVariable(s)' is an optional list of shell variables in the
# form VARIABLE=VALUE,VARIABLE=VALUE,... that 'ShellScript' is
# dependent upon. These variables MUST be defined using shell syntax.
#
# Example:
# &dotsh ('/tmp/foo', 'arg1');
# &dotsh ('/tmp/foo');
# &dotsh ('/tmp/foo arg1 ... argN');
#
