I want to insert a string with a literal "+" character. AHK, of course thinks "+" means SHIFT. I have found instructions for escaping other characters, but not for escaping "+".

So if I have:

:oc::chars:hello +1

I get:

hello !

But I want:

hello +1

Surely the answer is somewhere in the forum, but I can't find it.

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

more long-winded than fry's example:

Fry, your suggestion did not work. The ` doesn't seem to work before +.

pokercurious, a variation on your idea did work:

:oc::chars:hello {raw}+1

gives

hello +1

THANK YOU!
