Pls use code tags as advised.
You did not read what I wrote. Put everything into a new variable and supply that (I think by reference) to the system call.

REF(1) General Commands Manual REF(1)
NAME
ref - Display a C function header
SYNOPSIS
ref [-t] [-c class]... [-f file]... tag
DESCRIPTION
ref quickly locates and displays the header of a function. To do this, ref looks in the "tags" file for the line that describes the func-
tion, and then scans the source file for the function. When it locates the function, it displays an introductory comment (if there is
one), the function's declaration, and the declarations of all arguments.
SEARCH METHOD
ref uses a fairly sophisticated tag look-up algorithm. If you supply a filename via -f file, then elvis first scans the tags file for a
static tag from that file. This search is limited to the tags file in the current directory.
If you supply a classname via -c class, then elvis searches for a tag from that class. This search is not limited to the current direc-
tory; You can supply a list of directories in the environment variable TAGPATH, and ref will search through the "tags" file in each direc-
tory until it finds a tag in the desired class.
If that fails, ref will then try to look up an ordinary global tag. This search checks all of the directories listed in TAGPATH, too.
If you've given the -t flag, then ref will simply output the tag line that it found, and then exit. Without -t, though, ref will search
for the tag line. It will try to open the source file, which should be in the same directory as the tags file where the tag was discov-
ered. If the source file doesn't exist, or is unreadable, then ref will try to open a file called "refs" in that directory. Either way,
ref will try to locate the tag, and display whatever it finds.
INTERACTION WITH ELVIS
ref is used by elvis' shift-K command. If the cursor is located on a word such as "splat", in the file "foo.c", then elvis will invoke ref
with the command "ref -f foo.c splat".
If elvis has been compiled with the -DEXTERNAL_TAGS flag, then elvis will use ref to scan the tags files. This is slower than the built-in
tag searching, but it allows elvis to access the more sophisticated tag lookup provided by ref. Other than that, external tags should act
exactly like internal tags.
OPTIONS
-t Output tag info, instead of the function header.
-f file
The tag might be a static function in file. You can use several -f flags to have ref consider static tags from more than one file.
-c class
The tag might be a member of class class. You can use several -c flags to have ref consider tags from more than one class.
FILES
tags List of function names and their locations, generated by ctags.
refs Function headers extracted from source files (optional).
ENVIRONMENT
TAGPATH
List of directories to be searched. The elements in the list are separated by either semicolons (for MS-DOS, Atari TOS, and Amiga-
Dos), or by colons (every other operating system). For each operating system, ref has a built-in default which is probably ade-
quate.
NOTES
You might want to generate a "tags" file the directory that contains the source code for standard C library on your system. If licensing
restrictions prevent you from making the library source readable by everybody, then you can have ctags generate a "refs" file, and make
"refs" readable by everybody.
If your system doesn't come with the library source code, then perhaps you can produce something workable from the lint libraries.
