Quoting strings

[Anonymous bin Ich <ichbinanon@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi!

I have a string1='ls'
and string2='-l | cut -d " " -f6'

Now I create a new string3="$string1 $string2"

It all looks fine but when I try to run it via $($string3) I get:

+./working.zsh:7> '/bin/ls -l |cut -d " " -f6'
./working.zsh:7: no such file or directory: /bin/ls -l |cut -d " " -f6
