From 88a51b4f2e65ca4378a81ff0925fad076e82e177 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" Date: Wed, 7 Dec 2022 21:29:44 -0500 Subject: ktest.pl: Add shell commands to variables Allow variables to execute shell commands. Note, these are processed when they are first seen while parsing the config file. This is useful if you have the same config file used for multiple hosts (as they may be in a git repository).
