Hello, I am trying to pipe content from a C program into a shell script. What I want to do is to pass the information coming from the C app, into an environmental variable in the shell script: my_app | my_script . Say that my app spits out the date, ok? I want that an env variable declared in my_script pick up the data being piped and make that data its value. If anyone knows how to do this, or if I have not explained myself right please contact me. Thank You very much. Tony To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
