User shell script login

[gsb1bee]

HI ,

i have created a menu driven programme which is working accurately. I have to make it more advanced i.e the application has its own status report login enabling the programme to run without giving the operator access to shell.

what sort of script i should start with? any help much appreciated

we're having some trouble understanding this. Is
"application" same as "programme"? then

> the programme has its own status report login

we just don't know what this means.

the operator is to run the programme, but not to "shell
out" to the OS shell. If the programme has "--x--x--x"
permissions, then anybody can run it. As for "shelling
out" in "c" programming language you can trap "ctrl-c"
signal and others.

perhaps you could explain a little more?
