hi eric,

the object is to make the code inside a babel shell block as similar
to a real shell script as possible.  also, calling it using #+call
should be like calling it from another shell script.

this isn't possible in babel at present.

the script cannot use "$@" for its positional parameters.  it could
use <<noweb>>, but that requires the creation of an extraneous block
merely to do a call, instead of supplying the value in the call line.

if making this possible is not desirable, then i will not request it,
but i wanted to explain why this object is not achieved with existing
babel options that i am aware of.

thanks.

samuel
