Speaking of sed scripts ;>

How can I pass a shell variable into a sed script pattern space?

I've seen two (2) means documented elsewhere; but, I cannot get them to
work in Dachstein-CD:

        sed -n '/'"$var"'/p' file

        sed -n '/$(var)/p' file

Yes, I've found that I can do it this way; but, I'd prefer a single
step:

        regx="/$var/p"
        sed -n $regx file

What do you think?

Our capacity for understanding is inversely proportional to how much we
think we know.  The more I know, the more I know I don't know . . .
