[hobbit] getting alert to call scripts

[Robin Wood]

Bang on! I used /tmp so anyone could write to it but then had root
create the files and lock hobbit out!.

But, now that it is working no params are being passed into the scripts

#tail -f script sms text
==> script <==
Array
(
    [0] => /usr/local/bin/sendscript
)

==> sms <==
Array
(
    [0] => /usr/local/bin/sendsms
)

==> text <==
Array
(
    [0] => /usr/local/bin/sendemail
)

When I call it with params it has them so the script works.

# sendsms abc 123

==> sms <==
Array
(
    [0] => /usr/local/bin/sendsms
    [1] => abc
    [2] => 123
)

I assume that the that is the way it is supposed to work. Did your
version get params passed through?
