Why? Getting the content of the script is what GETSCRIPT is for.

      When I gone through the draft, I co-related things with unix
commands ls and cat.

it is better to compare the protocol to the Unix system calls:
readdir(2) and  open(2)/unlink(2).  you can't specify a pattern to
either of these, that work is left to the client application (actually
sh(1), not ls(1) or rm(1)).
