Calling PASE command in batch

["Burke, Joel" <jburke@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I currently have gzip, gpg and scp up and running in the PASE environment on
the i5. Obviously, I use these tools to compress, encrypt and then send a
file to a vendor.  They work great when i run the command interactively in
putty.

Now, i need to automate this process to run in batch and i am looking for
some guidance on how to do this task. I know that i can run QP2SHELL
commands in CL. I have successfully gzipped a file in batch but i have yet
to encrypt one.  The encryption may be a little trickier(i.e. passphrase).

Would it be better to write a shell script and just call that through
QP2SHELL in CL or should i call each command separately through CL? What
would be the best way to monitor for errors or successful completion?

TIA
