Run a string as a command within a Bash script

You can use eval to execute a string:

eval $illcommando

bash shell command-line-arguments

your_command_string="..."output=$(eval "$your_command_string")echo "$output"

bash shell command-line-arguments

I usually place commands in parentheses $(commandStr), if that doesn't help I find bash debug mode great, run the script as bash -x script
