Using brackets you can mix variables and text and create something like this: newName="${oldname}-bkp-${filedate}.${extension}.old"
The braces are not necessary here. This will work fine: newName="$oldname-bkp-$filedate.$extension.old" Braces would be necessary if you were using underscores instead of hyphens because they can be part of a variable name: newName="${oldname}_bkp_$filedate.$extension.old" -- Chris F.A.
