The customer wants to output a text string which includes a dollar sign ($), for example:
;$PATH=/_N_MPF_DIR
When creating an Operator Message with this text there is an error when post processing. How can this be output?
Solution
Normally the TCL interpreter looks for a variable after the dollar sign. To be able to output it as a character we need to put a backslash (\) in front of the dollar sign. So in Post Builder one can either:
Create a Text Element with this entry:
;\$PATH=/_N_MPF_DIR
or
Create a Custom Command with this entry:
MOM_output_literal ";\$PATH=/_N_MPF_DIR"
