Cris demonstrated a UNIX shell script 'here' file ... '<<' is standard input redirection of all text between two occurences of the following token -- in Cris' example, the token is __END__ (it could be anything)

Either spool the output of the script to a file with UNIX standard output redirection, or use the SQL*Plus SPOOL command to have SQL*Plus write to a file (download the SQL*Plus User's Guide at http://tahiti.oracle.com and read up on SQL*Plus commands)
