To do so generically might be beyond even bash variables. But you could always smash the paths, just might have to have counters for multiple contructs at a level... so you might have
Might not be horrible writing something in awk or sed to produce this type of output so it can be sourced into a program. Due to the counters, awk is the better candidate.
In your case, it could be very simple if you are just needing the one thing though. Just pull the line out, and do a simple translate.
