Hi All,

Thanks for the replies.
Suggest solution works for assigning to varaible. But my issue is different.
Let me explain.

I have file test_file in one unix server. Where it has a line as below
Code:
DEPLOYMENT="abc"   # com

I have an expect script, to execute any command on this unix server. usage of that expect script is
Code:
echo "<command>" | ./sshTargetasroot

Now my task is to fetch "abc" from test_file and read to some varaible, by echoing this command to expect script.
When I tried to read to varaible usng `<command>` I am facing this unexpected EOF error. Directly executing command, I am able to get the value as shown below



Code:
[mhs@flexitaf]$ echo "awk -F'\"' '/DEPLOYMENT/{ print \$2 }' ~/test_file" | ./sshTargetAsRoot
abc
[mhs@flexitaf]$ a=`echo "awk -F'\"' '/DEPLOYMENT/{ print \$2 }' ~/test_file" | ./sshTargetAsRoot`
DEPLOYMENT="abc"   # com
[mhs@flexitaf]$

locale::script5.18

Locale::Script(3pm)					 Perl Programmers Reference Guide				       Locale::Script(3pm)

NAME

       Locale::Script - standard codes for script identification

SYNOPSIS

	  use Locale::Script;

	  $script  = code2script('phnx');		      # 'Phoenician'
	  $code    = script2code('Phoenician'); 	      # 'Phnx'
	  $code    = script2code('Phoenician',
				 LOCALE_CODE_NUMERIC);	      # 115

	  @codes   = all_script_codes();
	  @scripts = all_script_names();

DESCRIPTION

       The "Locale::Script" module provides access to standards codes used for identifying scripts, such as those defined in ISO 15924.

       Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 15924
       four-letter codes will be used.

SUPPORTED CODE SETS

       There are several different code sets you can use for identifying scripts. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a constant
       that is automatically exported by this module.

       For example, the two are equivalent:

	  $script = code2script('phnx','alpha');
	  $script = code2script('phnx',LOCALE_SCRIPT_ALPHA);

       The codesets currently supported are:

       alpha, LOCALE_SCRIPT_ALPHA
	   This is a set of four-letter (capitalized) codes from ISO 15924 such as 'Phnx' for Phoenician.  It also includes additions to this set
	   included in the IANA language registry.

	   The Zxxx, Zyyy, and Zzzz codes are not used.

	   This is the default code set.

       num, LOCALE_SCRIPT_NUMERIC
	   This is a set of three-digit numeric codes from ISO 15924 such as 115 for Phoenician.

ROUTINES

       script2code ( NAME [,CODESET] )

       Locale::Script::add_script_code_alias  ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Script::delete_script_code_alias  ( CODE [,CODESET] )
	   These routines are all documented in the Locale::Codes::API man page.
