Usually only nine command line arguments can be accessed using positional parameters. The shift command gives access to command line arguments greater than nine by shifting each of the arguments. The second argument ($2) becomes the first ($1), the third ($3) becomes the second ($2) and so on. This gives you access to the tenth command line argument by making it the ninth. The first argument is no longer available. Successive shift commands make additional arguments available. ...

Plans are under way to create a new way of performing non-interactive observations which will be called auto-observing . ... Non-interactive observing with CIMA has for a long time been available with the use of CIMA command files. Contrary to normal command file observing which requires a command file with a set of commands to be executed sequentially, auto-observing will use a list of sources and a list of instructions on how to observe each of the sources. ...
