One of my programs has an exec function which refers to a program whoses command line arguments contain < filename >. As a result, the script returns an error message saying that > is not a valid filename. Would I have to set up an array for the arguments and use substitution to achieve the desired result? The argument is set as a variable and I have used substitution when refering to it.<br>Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
