Saving value of last argument into a variable

[Maldini]

Simple thing really, I have this script that I've written where I can have a different number of options input.

I need to find what the last argument input to this script by the user and then save its value into a script variable.

This is what I have and it manages to get the value and then output it onto stdout.

eval echo \$$#

Any way to twist this around so it saves into a variable in my script?

Many thanks.

Hi:

If you're running ksh you this works:

xvar=$(eval echo \$$#)
