Here's a trivial example using backquotes. The tricky part is getting bash to
use them in conditionals, variable assignments, and such.
0 % cat > /tmp/fie.py

echo `python /tmp/fie.py`
[ctrl-d]
0 % sh /tmp/echo.sh

I was just wondering if there was a way to return the results of a
python script to the bash shell? I was thinking about using the output
as an argumen for another shell command. I know that we can use the
shell from within Python via the OS module but I believe this is usually
used to feed input i
