[X-Unix] My ip address

[Scott]

ifconfig  |awk '/inet / {print $2}'

This will include loopback, ethernet, airport, etc. Note the space in 
/inet /. Without it, you get the ipv6 address as well.
If you want to exclude the local loopback address:

ifconfig  |awk '/inet / {print $2}' |grep -v 127.0.0.1

Or if you know what interface,

ifconfig en1  |awk '/inet / {print $2}'

Use en1 for airport, en0 for ethernet.
