I'm messing with ubermon for superkaramba and I want to know how to get my

I know I can grep and sed rc.conf or the output of ifconfig, but I'm hoping
there's a command like whoami for the ip address.
There isn't anything that simple, but munging the output of ifconfig is what
you want. This assumes that your box only has one IP address (other than
localhost):
# ifconfig -a | grep "inet " | grep -v 127.0.0.1 | awk ' { print $2 } ' 192.168.0.4

But, for simplicity, if you are on a public host:
$host `hostname`
might do it...

Doh! You'd still have to deal with some text output, though. Sorry.
