Question

I have a csh script, my goal is to read an ini config file with perl module Config::Simple. I want to execute my perl command and assign the result to one variable.

perl -MConfig::Simple -e '$cfg = new Config::Simple("../config.ini"); $myvar = $cfg->param("myvar");'

What is the syntax ?

Answer 1

Receive the script’s return value into a variable? I con’t know the csh syntax, but in bash that is:

myvar=`perl ....`;

But if you wanted to set several variables, not sure.
