[Freeswitch-users] Assigning a variable with a value from a system command?

[Antony Stone]

Hi.

I have a need to assign a variable in vars.xml with the value output from a 
system command (in this specific instance "hostname -s", but I'd like to have a 
generic solution for future use).

How can I do that?

Any suggestions are welcome, as is pointing at any documentation I've so far 
failed to find :)


Thanks,


Antony.
