2 Printing dollar from literals and variables
3
4 To survive the parser, a dollar sign must be doubled.
5 1 dollar literal => <single-quote-var-value>
6 1 dollar literal eol => <>
7 2 dollar literal => <$>
8 4 dollar literal => <$$>
9 Some hungry part of make eats all the dollars after a :U modifier.
10 1 dollar default => <>
11 2 dollar default => <>
12 4 dollar default => <>
13 This works as expected.
14 1 dollar variable => <>
15 2 dollar variable => <$>
16 4 dollar variable => <$$>
17 Some hungry part of make eats all the dollars after a :U modifier.
18 1 dollar var-default => <>
19 2 dollar var-default => <$>
20 4 dollar var-default => <$$>

22 Dollar in :S pattern
23
24 S,$,word, => <$XYword>
25 S,$X,word, => <$XY>
26 S,$$X,word, => <$XY>
27 S,$$$X,word, => <$XY>
28 S,$X,replaced, => <replaced>
29 S,$$X,replaced, => <replaced>
30 S,$$$X,replaced, => <replaced>
31
32 Dollar in :C character class
33
34 The A is replaced because the $$ is reduced to a single $,
35 which is then resolved to the variable X with the value VAR_X.
36 The effective character class becomes [VAR_XY].
37 C,[$$XY],<&>,g => <$<A><X><Y>>
38
39 Dollar in :C pattern
40
41 For some reason, multiple dollars are folded into one.
42 C,$,dollar,g => <>
43 C,$$,dollar,g => <>
44
45 Dollar in :S replacement
46
47 For some reason, multiple dollars are folded into one.
48 S,word,a$Xo, => <aVAR_Xo>
49 S,word,a$$Xo, => <aVAR_Xo>
50 S,word,a$$$Xo, => <aVAR_Xo>
51 exit status 0
