Note Submitter: slackaz at gmail dot com ---- The above example in the "Complex (curly) syntax" section contains the following error: -------------------------------------------------------------- echo "This is the value of the var named $name: {${$name}}"; -------------------------------------------------------------- There are two mistakes in this code: 1. Because the first instance of $name is in double-quotes, the actual variable will be printed out (ex., "This is the value of the var named Bob:"). 2. The second $ inside the curly brackets must be removed. The corrected example is: -------------------------------------------------------------- echo "This is the value of the var named \$name: {${name}}"; --------------------------------------------------------------
