5 years ago This is outside the scope of the plugin. The plugin is using the Keypirinha API to parse the settings.
I would suggest reading Keypirinha's documentation for the INI format used in configuration files. This will tell you how to properly escape things.

5 years ago @ccarpo the $ character must be escaped by doubling it. The aforementioned error message gives you the workaround to be applied: '$' must be followed by '$' or '{'.
This should do (untested):
[snippet/OhMyZshInstall]
string = sh -c "$$(curl -fsSL 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/master/tools/install.sh')"Notice the $$ sequence. I also quoted the URL.

3 years ago Hello, I would like to summarize some extra info about this for fellow users.
Looks like Keypirinha uses configparser.ExtendedInterpolation. That means u need to escape the $, as mentioned by the others, and as explained in the documentation linked below.
$ is the only character that needs to be escaped
For extra info: https://docs.python.org/3/library/configparser.html#configparser.ExtendedInterpolation

cost: $$80 # use a $$ to escape the $ sign ($ is the only character that needs to be escaped)
