I hope someone can help me out. I have a user that is attempting to write
a korn shell script that he is attempting to pass a series of numbers to.
The problem is when he attempts to send it a negative number the korn shell
treats the negative number as an option. We have tried varies quoting
schemes to no avail. So the question is how do you pass a negative number
on the command line to a korn shell script? Any info would be helpful.

Thanks.
