How-to pass record id to visualforce page

 I have a button that initiates this url: ....../apex/VSPageStandardControllerPagePainting?engId={!Engagement__c.Id }
 
In my Visualforce page,  how to I capture the engId so I can then use it in the code?    I think I use the following in some way,  but how?
 
 What is the complete code syntax?  
 
System.currentPageReference().getParameters().get('engId')
 
Your help is greatly appreciated.

Hi, 
Please use this :
ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters().get('engId')

Thanks

thanks.  Now to what to I assign it?  How do I get it into a variable that I can then use later in the code?

I found that this displays the engId:   Current Page parameters.engid is: {!$CurrentPage.parameters.engId}  
Is this okay?
