Calling a script from a terminated script

[Lee Maschmeyer]

Hi folks,

Weird as it sounds, that's what I want to do. I have a script that needs to 
reinvoke itself, and I have this part solved. But the caller hangs around 
while the called version executes; if it also calls itself the stack keeps 
getting bigger. Is there a way I can make the caller schedule the callee and 
then terminate so there's no stacking?

And, am I right in thinking there's no way for a script to retrieve the 
entire command line used to invoke it? There's /proc/$$/cmdline but the 
spaces are 0x00 and I can't seem to snag them to turn them back to spaces.

Thanks much for any info,
