rendering HTML with embedded $'s
alecf
<pre>
my $x = 4;
</pre>
Problem is, that I can't get this to just render normally. We've tried
$$, CDATA, and more.. the only workaround we've found so far is ${"$"}
but this seems pretty terrible, and ugly as hell.
What's especially odd is that
<pre>
my $$x = 4;
</pre>
renders as
<pre>
$x = 4
</pre>
(note the lack of ' my ' - the beginning of the line is getting
yanked)

Whoa! I'm able to reproduce this, and looking into it. Thanks for
reporting the issue!
Cheers,

Okay, this should be fixed now in trunk and the 0.4.x branch. I'd
appreciate if you could verify the fix. Thanks!
Oh, and the double-dollar escaping is the way to go here. If it
wasn't broken in this case, at least :-P

I think you can close ticket 117 now. I submitted a patch that fixed
my problems with this issue
that you can take a look at (a missing yield).
