| Formatting Tokens
TWiki defines some standard special tokens that can be used to replace characters in some parameters - notably those to FormattedSearch and IfStatements - to defer evaluation of the parameter until later. These special tokens are often called "escapes", because they allow the character to "escape" from its normal meaning. |
|
$quot |
Double quote (" ) (\" also works) |
$percnt |
Percent sign (% ) |
$dollar |
Dollar sign ($ ) |
|
|
> > |
$lt |
Less than sign (< ) |
$gt |
Greater than sign (> ) |
|
|
If you ever find yourself needing to escape an escape, you can use $dollar to escape the leading dollar, thus: $dollarpercnt . |
