\subsection eval-description Description
|
|
`eval` evaluates the specified parameters as a command. If more than one parameter is specified, all parameters will be joined using a space character as a separator.
|
|
|
|
If your command does not need access to stdin, consider using `source` instead.

|
\subsection eval-example Example
|
|
|
|
The following code will call the ls command. Note that `fish` does not support the use of shell variables as direct commands; `eval` can be used to work around this.
|
|
|
|
\fish
|
|
set cmd ls
|
|
eval $cmd
|
|
\endfish
