    Hi, sorry if my question is unclear.

    I am working on creating a document from templates and is using the dollar($) template symbol to wrap my variable tags.

    Ex: $VAR_1$, $VAR_2$, etc..

    Everything is working great. However, when it comes to replacing amount/money into the document, the dollar sign has to be used on the template as a unit of currency and not as a delimiter for variable tags.

    My question is, is there a way to escape it? Like how we use backslashes to escape single/double quotes from a string?

    Example: $$TOTAL_AMOUNT$
