Sed
Hello all,

Just been looking into forum but couldn't find what I am looking for. I need to extract the content from a file that is between { } from any of these strings.

${C123QHOME}
${C12QHOME}

Or anything else between { } and drop that to a variable. I know that sed would do it but just can't start... any help?

So let's say ${C124HOME} would become C124HOME into a variable and then

Code:
echo MYVAR
C124HOME
