Zsh 4.2.5 on FreeBSD. I'm ssh'ing into the FreeBSD machine.
I'm trying to get my remote host into a variable REMOTE_HOST. I have
tried both of these in .zshenv:
REMOTE_HOST=`who am i | awk '{print $NF}'|tr -d '(|)'`
$ who am i
luomat ttyp0 Nov 30 19:34 (192.168.1.103)
That works on the commandline, but when I try it in .zshenv I get
"19:34" or whatever the timestamp is for that session.
Thinking I would be clever, I tried this
TTYSHORT=`echo $TTY |colrm 1 8`
REMOTE_HOST=`w | fgrep $TTYSHORT | awk '{print $3}'`
but that does not work either.
Anyone know how to get this to work in .zshenv?
