Incorrect expanding of `$a.$a` with double `{{expr}}` in snippet

[zardoy]

Example snippet:

{
    "name": "that",
    "description": "",
    "body": "console.log('${1:{{expr}}}', {{expr}})$2",
    "when": ["identifier", "expression", "function-call"]
},

I don't really expect fix soon as I see I isn't maintained anymore, just recording for future work it here.

To reproduce:

1. Write $a.$a in empty file
2. Expand with .that (see snippet above)

Actual: console.log('$a.', $a.) (probably incorrect $ escaping) Expected: console.log('$a.$a', $a.$a)

You can try this snippet with other expressions ($a.a for example) where it works correctly

Can you elaborate on expected behavior? What's the input? Is it a. and is it about the dot after replacement?

Can you elaborate on expected behavior?

Surely! I updated the body of the issue, hope it helps.

Well, you were absolutely right about escaping: https://github.com/ipatalas/vscode-postfix-ts/commit/1a7bfc111ff4d1ef7c7ad071a9a6dc8c15eece35

Thanks :)

It also fixed previous behavior when it was removing $ string template handling.
