ip=$(wget -O - http://cfaj.freeshell.org/ipaddr.cgi 2>/dev/null)

     Or:

ip=$(lynx -dump http://cfaj.freeshell.org/ipaddr.cgi)


     Or probably something similar with curl.


     Or use bash socket programming to do the same thing (I haven't tried
     it, but it should work):

exec 3<>/dev/tcp/cfaj.freeshell.org/80

     etc....
