Quoting a $ in popup2 Thread last updated on 2004-05-20 09:39:11

Is there any way to quote the $ character in a popup2 menu? I've tried the normal routes like \$ and $$ as well as '$', etc.

I'd like to set up a DynamicFolder for my network drives which follow the UNC convention "\\computername\c$". Yes, it would probably work if I mapped drives, but I have over 20 shares on 8 machines and would run out of alphabet =).

*Popup "test" !DynamicFolder:"\\mac\h$\"

The problem is more easily reproducible using:

*Popup "\\mac\h$" !DynamicFolder:"C:\"

... to try to label the menu item with a $ in it -- The $ just gets dropped. Or you can try a local directory named "C:\$" as well.

Thanks in advance.
