Using $ in folder names.

Sayyan Kotor · 27th January 2007, 00:40

For the installer I am currently creating, I need to be able to install folders and files that begin with a $, the compiler ignores this, which means the installer can't install properly.

How can I get around this?

$foldername should be added in script as $$foldername.
