[SunHELP] quoting and script generation

[Markham, Richard]

If you try this you'll see that it doesn't work, the shell waits for more
input on command line or claims unmatched ' if redirecting to file.  I
beleive I will just play around ksh "print -n".

Try this:
     echo "allocate channel t1 type 'sbt_tape'
parms=\"ENV=(NB_ORA_CLIENT=mydb)\";"
or this:
     echo 'allocate channel t1 type \'sbt_tape\'
parms="ENV=(NB_ORA_CLIENT=mydb)";'
