Reading from Standard In/Writing to Standard Out? (on Solaris)

[Rick Henderson]

I have not tried this yet.  But this is what I am planning to do.

We have php installed and can run as a script.  It has compiled into it
the functions for db2, oracle and filepro.

I intend to put at the last of the input processing where the
appropriate sql is created and passed as an argument to the script.

the script runs and updates the database (oracle and db2 in our case).
