Maybe this is a stupid question, but I can't find an answer.

	#!/bin/bash
	mkfifo /tmp/phone/pipe
	mplayer -slave -quiet -idle -input file=/tmp/phone/pipe music.mp3 &

	while [ i > 1 ]; do
		sleep 1
		echo get_percent_pos > /tmp/phone/pipe | cut -d= -f2
	done

or
	while [ 1 = 1 ]; do
		sleep 1
		echo get_percent_pos > /tmp/phone/pipe | awk -F\= '{print $2}'
	done

The output is the same:
	...
	ANS_PERCENT_POSITION=1
	ANS_PERCENT_POSITION=1
	ANS_PERCENT_POSITION=2
	ANS_PERCENT_POSITION=2
	...

Is it possible to have this:
	1
	1
	2
	2

and pipe this to zenity --progress

thanks,

Flo
