Description
Description of the problem or steps to reproduce
in a bash script, executing
replace "VAR" "$VAR" -l
Will delete the string VAR. (probably since $VAR has no value in env..)
I would make a replaceall of a path with a new $VAR
How this could be done?

Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported replace "VAR" "$VAR" -l behavior from a bash terminal using the stated version context, then trace the replace command's implementation and existing tests. Confirm the intended handling of a literal $VAR when the shell variable is unset and document the expected replace-all behavior before considering the issue done.
