bash: how _best_ to create a script from another script

Question

What is a generalized way to create a bash script from another script.

For instance:

$./script1 arg1 arg2 > script2
$./script2
$arg1 arg2

I can think of a few ways like simply echoing the output but I was wondering if there was a better way or a command I didn't know about and a google search wasn't very helpful.

Thanks in advance for any and all help.

Answer 1

Any way of outputting from the first script will work, so echo or cat with a heredoc should be fine:

cat << EOT
these will be
the lines of
the second script
EOT
