  set pagesize 0
  set feedback off
  set heading off
  set echo off
  set verify off
  select to_date($sysdate, 'yyyymmdd') - to_date($currfile, 'yyyymmdd')   from dual;

Just make sure you note the heredoc in the example ... and that you make sure to close it:

Code:
  diffdays=`sqlplus -s <username>/<password> <<END
  set pagesize 0
  set feedback off
  set heading off
  set echo off
  set verify off
  select to_date($sysdate, 'yyyymmdd') - to_date($currfile, 'yyyymmdd')   from dual;

Code:
END `
