Yup.

   set parameterscript [lindex $argv 0]
   puts "this is ns constellation simulation $argv0 running script \
          $parameterscript"
   source $parameterscipt

beats

   set parameterscript [lindex $argv 0]
   puts "this is ns constellation simulation $argv0 running script \
          $parameterscript"
   source $parameterscript
   set f [open $parameterscript r]
   while {[gets $f line] >=0} {
     eval $line
   }
   close $f

hands down. Thanks for the Tcl-is-really-a-shell reminder, harlisya.

Cheers,
