On my Fedora 19 system, I am able to change the system hostname with hostnamectl. This allows me to set several things, such as the static (normal) hostname, as well as a pretty hostname.Is there a simple command that retrieves the pretty hostname, from a bash prompt? hostname returns the static hostname, and the man page shows no options to recover the pretty one.
Obtain the pretty hostname in bash
fedora;hostname
As per man hostnamectl:       The static host name is stored in /etc/hostname, see hostname(5) for more information. The pretty host name,       chassis type and icon name are stored in /etc/machine-info, see machine-id(5).Therefore, if you have set a pretty hostname using the commandhostnamectl set-hostname --pretty YourHostnameyou can retrieve it using a tool like awk:awk -F= '/PRETTY/ {print $2}' /etc/machine-info
