ppl I've a question: $ grep "^${USER}:" /etc/passwd | cut -d: -f5 The above command will use an interactive shell to read your full name from /etc/passwd so far cool but since I don't understand completely the purpose of " " why when I remove "" enclosing the $USER and replace it with the backtick (`) as follows it gives me error ?!! $ grep `^${USER}:` /etc/passwd | cut -d: -f5 Since `$USER` should give me the value of $USER then grep should use whatever value $USER will return.
