This depends on the shell you are using.
Shells that behave like the C-Shell use the variable: $status
Shells that behave like the Bourne (or Korn) shell use the variable: $?
These variables are set to the exit code of the last command executed.
BEWARE: in a "pipeline", the variable contains the exit code of the LAST command in the pipeline. All the other exit codes are lost.
