i've not been very active here (sorry) so maybe this is off kilter a
little - some languages/formats distinguish, though - e.g. in the Unix
shells, "$$" is the process ID of the current shell, and '$$" is two
dollar signs: interpolation happens in "..." and not in '...' so they
have to be treated differently.

But maybe that's not what's going on here?
