Hello,

I am trying to include the backtick (`) symbol as part of text expansion output.

The following script does not work.

 

:SI:zcb::
clipboard =
( ltrim
```
%clipboard%
```
)
Send ^{v} 
Return 

 

It would like the output to be as follows:

 

```
(clipboard contents would go here)
```

 

How do I make the script treat the backtick (`) symbol as a regular character?

Thank you in advance.

Here is.

:SI:zcb::
clipboard =
( ` LTrim Join`r`n
```
%clipboard%
```
)
Send ^{v} 
Return

Thank you.

 

This also works:

:SI:zcb::
#EscapeChar \
clipboard = 
( ltrim
``` 
%clipboard% 
```
)
Send ^{v} 
Return

Correction:

 

Changed

#EscapeChar \

to 

#EscapeChar Insert

 

#EscapeChar \ broke my URL text expansions.

 

I hardly ever use the {Insert} key.

Oddly enough, 

#EscapeChar Insert

broke my text expansions that included captial I.

 

Picked random symbol (þ) from Character Map application.

Now it does not interfere with any of my scripts/expansions.
