Can I run a command WITHIN another command?
You can try escaping the command like so
twidge update "$(date)"
Which will execute date
and concatenate the output of the command into the twidge
command.
According to the twidge
help info
You can also omit the status, in which case a single line will be read from stdin and taken as your update. Example:
date | twidge update
Just pipe the command to twidge via stdin.
Yep, if I understand you properly, this will do it:
twidge update `date`
If twidge
doesn't like it, try twidge update "$(date)"
, quotation marks to pass it in as one long string.
