well I tried... using "show" and [show] neither of those worked... syntax
error. I was thinking maybe that I could use some kind of character escape
to do it much like in say BASH if I really want to I can make echo '$SHELL'
print $SHELL instead of  /bin/bash this database I'm playing with isn't
important just a sample from a book... but it wasn't written for mysql. and
is Fairly old although the samples should be built around ANSI SQL-92 anyway
guess somedays I'm just not thinking.
