Hi,,
variable=`some_command`
===========================
Example::
#!/bin/bash
vv=`pwd`
echo $vv $vv $vv
When this file runs, it report the current directory to std out. (three
times, on the same line)

Hello again,
This is sort of following on from my previous post.
I have this command below to give me the temperature of hard drive 3 which
works from command line:
smartctl -A /dev/sdc | grep Temperature_Celsius | awk '{print $10}'
but I'm having trouble getting it to run in a bash script file assigned to a
variable.
In a script I've tried escaping the pipe symbols and the quotes but nothing
seems to quite work...
DISKTEMP=smartctl -A /dev/sdc \| grep Temperature_Celsius \| awk \'{print $10}\'
DISKTEMP=$(smartctl -A /dev/sdc \| grep Temperature_Celsius \| awk \'{print
$10}\')
It seems a simple enough task, can someone please show me how it should be
written?
Thanks,
Bryce Stenberg.
