Synopsis: eval Description: EVAL takes the commands given it and passes them through EPIC's internal inline parser before executing them. This means that variables will be expanded once, and the command terminator (;) is honored. This has the same effect as executing a command with INPUT_ALIASES turned on. Examples: To force the display of a variable when not inside an alias: eval echo The variable's value is $foo See Also: set(4) input_aliases Other Notes: Care should be taken when using EVAL with untrusted input. If EVAL must be used, it is important to first strip out any characters that have special meaning to the inline parser, such as ';'. Using EVAL in this manner can very easily lead to a hijacked client or compromised account.
