NCM templates/scripts for reading output of CLI commands

Friends,

I manage a two tiered service desk. I want to remove all CLI access (albeit Read only) for all my tier1 support techs. I would like them to execute any diagnostic scripts (eg show / ping / trace ) etc via NCM scripts.

While I have found enough information on Thwack on executing CLI change commands, I havent been able to figure out how to read back the output of the CLI command.

Appreciate if someone can guide me in the right direction here.

P.S : All my devices are Cisco IOS

Thanks
