getting variables from another script
I have 2 scripts.The first script greps something and prints it

say a.sh
#!/bin/sh
ccc="grep something and cut something"
echo $ccc

When you run this it gives a value say "100"

I have b.sh and I have
#!/bin/sh
status=`/home/a.sh`
status_code=$?
echo status_code

When I run b.sh I dont get 100 but get some other number...do you know why?
