Formatting Tokens 
TWiki defines some standard special tokens that can be used to replace characters in some parameters - notably those to 
FormattedSearch and 
IfStatements - to defer evaluation of the parameter until later. These special tokens are often called "escapes", because they allow the character to "escape" from its normal meaning. 
                 
		
			| $nor$n() | New line. Use $n()if followed by alphanumeric character, e.g. writeFoo$n()Barinstead ofFoo$nBar | 
		
			| $nopor$nop() | Is a "no operation". This variable gets removed; useful for nested search | 
		
			| $quotor\" | Double quote ( ") | 
		
			| $percnt | Percent sign ( %) | 
		
			| $dollar | Dollar sign ( $) | 
		
			| $lt | Less than sign ( <) | 
		
			| $gt | Greater than sign ( >) | 
     
If you ever find yourself needing to escape an escape, you can use 
$dollar to escape the leading dollar, thus: 
$dollarpercnt.
