KSH Scripting -- TO-HERE Block in a Function

[Alzhy]

Can't seem to have a TO-HERE Block work:

function check_port
{
subsys <blah
blah
>
TOHERE
}


Any idears?

It always complains of:

syntax error at line NN : `<<' unmatched

Hi:

Does this help"

# cat ./myscript
#!/usr/bin/sh
function subsys
{
while read X
do
echo ${X}
done
echo "...and it is $(date)"
}
function check_port
{
subsys <blah
blah
blah
TOHERE
}
check_port
exit 0

# ./myscript
blah
blah
blah
...and it is Thu Aug 13 15:46:52 EDT 2009
