Down to the last stage of the script.
I want to do something like this
mkdir -pv top/{list,of,sub,folders}/{sub,sub,folders}
and when it's written out explicitly the tree is dutifully constructed.
But if I make a variable whose value is the list (either with or without the braces) and drop that in, like so,
mkdir -pv top/{variable}/{sub,sub,folders}
or
mkdir -pv top/variable/{sub,sub,folders}
the variable evaluates, but the shell fails to construct the tree using the list held in the variable. Any way to persuade that to work?
