Output formatting help needed.

Hi guys ,
I have a file which contains following string.(filename tempdisplay)
(location 0.0.0.0:5900)

i needed to write a script which will extract the string that comes after
0.0.0.0 i.e the string :5900.

I have used following method to extract the string :5900 .Is it a preferred way of doing the job as following script will create two files?

Code:
sed s/"(location 0.0.0.0"/""/ tempdisplay > temp2display
#temp2display will now contain :5900)
temp=`sed s/")"/""/ temp2display`
#temp will now contain :5900
echo $temp

output:
:5900

ustrtok(3alleg4)						  Allegro manual						  ustrtok(3alleg4)

NAME
ustrtok - Retrieves tokens from a string. Allegro game programming library. SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h> char *ustrtok(char *s, const char *set); DESCRIPTION
This function retrieves tokens from `s' which are delimited by characters from `set'. To initiate the search, pass the string to be searched as `s'. For the remaining tokens, pass NULL instead. Warning: Since ustrtok alters the string it is parsing, you should always copy the string to a temporary buffer before parsing it. Also, this function is not re-entrant (ie. you cannot parse two strings at the same time). Example: char *word; char string[]="some-words with dashes"; char *temp = ustrdup(string); word = ustrtok(temp, " -"); while (word) { allegro_message("Found `%s' ", word); word = ustrtok(NULL, " -"); } free(temp); RETURN VALUE
Returns a pointer to the token, or NULL if no more are found. SEE ALSO
