I trying to build a script in linux – bash, being new to it. I would like to assign the output of the command ps -ef as a variable. Can someone help me with that? The trivial myVariable = ps -ef is unfortunately not working.

    You want:

    myVariable=`ps -ef`

    or:

     myVariable=$(ps -ef)

    Note no spaces around the ‘=’ sign.
