Try single quotes to avoid interpolation:SciTE -grep ~~~~ "" "" '$2800'- Francisco

But if I call SciTE in command line directly, it works:SciTE -grep ~~~~ "" "" "\$2800"This result is valid. So how can I remove the extra "\" character added by the Find in Files command?On Monday, September 30, 2024 at 2:03:54 PM UTC+8 Neil Hodgson wrote:Jingcheng Zhang:I cannot find a text with '$' in it, the result is invalid. But under windows it works correctly.Seems the '$' is hijacked by linux shell which makes the problem. How to solve?On Linux, the Find in Files command works by running another SciTE process with the text provided as a command-line argument.The '$' should be quoted with '\' to avoid shell interpretation so '\$'. This can be done in the Slash function.Another problem is that there is an extra layer of variable interpretation for $(variable) in SciTEBase::Execute that should be avoided for this case.It would likely be better to reimplement using threads instead of processes as is done for Windows and MacOS.Neil
