SQLPLUS中new_value的作用还是挺大的。利用这个倒是能解决挺多问题的。
引用这么段话：

Oracle SQL*Plus has a very useful new sub-parameter to the column parameter called new_value.

The new_value directive allows data that has been retrieved from an Oracle table to be stored as a

variable inside the SQL*Plus script.

By using the new_value parameter you can make your SQL*Plus script behave like a real

programming language, storing and addressing program variables, just like in PL/SQL.

The ability to store SQL*Plus variables and fill them with Oracle data is a very powerful

feature and makes SQL*Plus scripts more efficient because database access is reduced.
使用方法小结一下：

export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
