Send line/selection to Stata 13 doesn't work with $ signs #12

Hi Andrew,

this is a fabulous plug-in, but it seems that any Stata command that includes a $ symbol (used for global macros) doesn't seem to work. The line or selection is correctly sent to the Stata window and runs, but it somehow omits everything right after the $ symbol..

For example, 

use "${input}/test.dta", clear

or 

use "$dinput/test.dta", clear

executes to 

. use "/test.dta", clear

I'm using Stata 13.1/MP under OS X 10.9.2. Maybe I'm just missing something? Anyway, thanks again for the great work!

Christian

Package Control should pick up on the update in an hour or so, and then you can update the package from Sublime Text. Thanks for finding this!

I update to the latest package, but this problem still exists. I am using Stata 12.1/SE and Sublime Text 3.

Sorry about that! The $s only need to be escaped when using AppleScript (for Stata 13), not for Stata 11-12. It should work in version 1.2.6. Thanks for finding this!
