First i write a configfile with all my parameters like this

path="/home/test/"

I name it test.conf

Then i write a shell script with this content and name it test and make it executable with chmod +x.

#!/bin/bash
#read the config file
. /home/test/test.conf

#cat the file /home/test/test
cat `$path`test #This line is the problem

And I get this output

./test/test: line 3: /home/test/: Is a directory
cat: test: No such file or directory

But what I want is that it shows me the content of the file /home/test/test. So how do I write this script correctly, that it doesn't make a new line after the filepath?
