I don't want to encourage anyone to ask questions that can be found in other
ways, *but*... :)
Since you asked, and I had wondered about this myself previously, I just
worked it out (or, rather, stumbled across it). The following works for me:
ping -c 1 hop www.google.com | grep 'bytes from' | cut -d ' ' -f 5 | cut -d
'(' -f 2 | cut -d ')' -f 1
Since the ping manpage doesn't actually seem to explain what the hop keyword
does, I'd love to know... :)
