sorry, asked for help too soon.  this works:
(defun syncmyfile (filename)
  (interactive "FFile to sync: ")
  (expand-file-name filename ) 
  (shell-command (concat "rsync -azvbP " filename " 
server:/var/www/path/images/"))
  (insert (concat "[[http://server/images/"; (file-name-nondirectory filename) 
"]] ") ))

only-barely-related question:  does anyone know whether I can add an
alternate text to an image link in muse mode?  trying to comply to
accessibility standards.

thanks,
matt
