Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: connecting to sqlplus within a shell script
SQL*Plus is probably performing terminal specific ioctl settings; e.g., setting it in something other than line mode so it can update the screen more efficiently, etc.
For scripting SQL, I'd recommend making a move to Perl/DBI. It rocks!
