[Help] RE: for list task eats multiple dollar signs

The following forum message was posted by chris_holman at http://sourceforge.net/projects/ant-contrib/forums/forum/113701/topic/4660869:

I've done some more digging and it seems that this is an ant "feature":

[code]<property name="lineOfTestLine" value="$ $$ $$$ $$$$ $$$$$ $$$$$$" />
<echo message="${lineOfTestLine}" />
[/code] 

Results in:

[code][echo] $ $ $$ $$ $$$ $$$
[/code]

I've posted in the ant user forum.
