Angry Executing Stdout ???

Hiya all,

Simple question - yet no simple answer im afraid !

Is there a way to execute a shell script (child) which returns one line and get the current (parent) shell to execute the stdout from the child ???

example

child.sh
#!/bin/sh
echo "setenv DISPLAY xxx:03"

parent_prompt> ./child.sh
setenv DISPLAY xxx:03 #<--- parent would exe this line ????

many many thanks in advance for your feedback effort support and time in this .....
