[OT] Evaluate strings in bash

[Matias Surdi]

Hi, sorry for the offtopic, but maybe somebody can help me here.

I've the following variable:

[code]
# echo $BINMAKE
`if [ -x /usr/obj/usr/src/make.i386/make ]; then echo 
/usr/obj/usr/src/make.i386/make; else echo make; fi` -m /usr/src/share/mk
#
[/code]

It's a string wich includes a commmand.

How can I get the subcommand replaced by its output?

I'd like to have a second variable like:

[code]
# echo $newvariable
make -m /usr/src/share/mk
#
[code]


Thanks a lot.
