| Description |
|
This is for field names referred to in expressions. "$" is attractive because we don't accept field names that start with "$." "@" was mentioned as another possiblity. "/fieldName/" was rejected because of its similarity to regular expressions. Ditto for a leading "^". |

Agreed to stick with '$' in meeting w/Dwight and Eliot on 9/15/11. |
