I'm scripting a backup solution, the line that does the business looks
like this:

tar -zcvf - *  --exclude-from $EXCLUDES  | openssl des3 -salt -k $1 |
dd of=$(hostname)-$(date +%Y%m%d).tbz

Because of the "v" flag tar writes to stdout the name of each file
copied. How can I get that output redirected to a variable, to use
later in the script?

Thanks!
