    So I have another question.

    Is there anything that can call up a bash script from MPL ?

    Yes. Use the door commands. Use menu type DD or D3. Call the script as if
    it were a regulard program.

    Reference previous message, i do recall a function that executes menu commands and you would use that to pass the DOOR menu command and pass the paramters to that function.

    Yes, I ended up figuring this out. However, the specific command being called needs to be under bash. For some odd reason even if I tell it to run bash
    it throws an sh error at me regarding piping of <<< .
