 I'm trying to extract elevation contour lines from a couple of shapefiles
 I know it worked before on my linux.
 
 cheers,

Maybe a problem with the quotes in the expression(s)?

Both didn't worked.


 $i_elev  --  ${i}_elev

  $i\_elev instead of $i_elev.

You have two errors:

1) (as Hamish pointed out) $i_elev is a legal variable name so you want 
{$i}_elev
2) {i}_elev will become shapefile.shp_elev, which ogr2ogr might have a 
problem with..


so instead try: $i_elev == elev_$i
