curl - sys env vars in a curl statement

bruce <badouglas@xxxxxxxxx> · Mon, 8 Aug 2016 17:13:17 -0400

hey peeps!!

Got a prob, and maybe I'm just tired. As far as I can tell, sys env vars should be double quoted >"< inside a curl.

I've got the following couple of statements. The curls pretty much work except the last curl, where I can't be sure exactly what the data for the post is, as I can't display the curl with the sys env var.. 

Pointers would be good. 

Thanks!

echo '' > 1aa.lwp

##I attempt to use the icsidval in the above data for the post, but when the curl is displayed in the verbose, I'm not seeing the expanded var.
