    Greetings,,,

    Mmmm, I hit a blank

    I know how to use read in conbination with echo, but have forgotten what we
    use for passing parameters to a script:

    for example
    If I write script called hello

    you would executei it like so :

    ./hello James

    capture James as a variable,,,, etc

    I just can't remeber how to do it.

    Please Help

    Thanks
