I understand how to use a variable in a sed command, but for the life of me I can't get the output into a variable.
I'm making a general function to replace part of a filename with a different string, so:

Hi there!
I'm trying to write a script that will capture output from a command and assign it to a variable.
Let's say, for example, I'd like to catch from inside the script whatever the following command outputs:
ls *.aaa
and put it into a variable "listoffiles".
What I tried was:
set... (3 Replies)
Hi All,

But when i do this it does not return me to the prompt properly

Stumped with the formatting of the awk output when used with variables, e.g.:
awk -F, 'BEGIN {OFS=","} print {$2,$3,$4}' $infile1
produces the desired output (with rows), but when echoing the variable below, the output is one continuous line
var1=$(awk -F, 'BEGIN {OFS=","} print... (4 Replies)
I'm trying to echo the release version of some of our Linux servers. Typically I do these types of things by "catting" a text file with the host names, "ssh-ing" to the host and running my string.

LIBBASH(7) libbash Manual LIBBASH(7)NAME
libbash -- A bash shared libraries package.
DESCRIPTION
libbash is a package that enables bash dynamic-like shared libraries. Actually its a tool for managing bash scripts whose functions you may
want to load and use in scripts of your own.
It contains a 'dynamic loader' for the shared libraries ( ldbash(1)), a configuration tool (ldbashconfig(8)), and some libraries.
Using ldbash(1) you are able to load loadable bash libraries, such as getopts(1) and hashstash(1). A bash shared library that can be loaded
using
ldbash(1) must answer 4 requirments:
1. It must be installed in $LIBBASH_PREFIX/lib/bash (default is /usr/lib/bash).
2. It must contain a line that begins with '#EXPORT='. That line will contain (after the '=') a list of functions that the library
exports. I.e. all the function that will be usable after loading that library will be listed in that line.
3. It must contain a line that begins with '#REQUIRE='. That line will contain (after the '=') a list of bash libraries that are
required for our library. I.e. every bash library that is in use in our bash library must be listed there.
4. The library must be listed (For more information, see ldbashconfig(8)).
Basic guidelines for writing library of your own:
1. Be aware, that your library will be actually sourced. So, basically, it should contain (i.e define) only functions.
2. Try to declare all variables intended for internal use as local.
3. Global variables and functions that are intended for internal use (i.e are not defined in '#EXPORT=') should begin with:
__<library_name>_
For example, internal function myfoosort of hashstash library should be named as
__hashstash_myfoosort
This helps to avoid conflicts in global name space when using libraries that come from different vendors.
4. See html manual for full version of this guide.
