the resulting values of expression in a
variable.
for example
x=ipx_configure | cut -d " " -f 5
y= tail -l | cut -d : -f 3
the variable x/y is empty empty ?
kindly give me a solution to do this.
if you want output of a command in a variable you can use backtick
x=`tail -n 2 xyzfile|cut -f 3 -d :`
echo $x
