I have a .ksh script that calls a perl pgm. The perl pgm creates some important data that the .ksh script needs to act on. Example:

.ksh pgm

#!/usr/bin/ksh
abc.pl > $logFile
# perl pgm creates variable $importantData   See below.
#  HOW DO I GET THE .KSH SCRIPT TO SEE $importantData  ???
def.ksh $importantData  # send important data to another .ksh script
exit

.

Perl pgm

$importantData = somefunction();
exit;
