Hello,

the snippets are in JSON format.

JSON is pretty liberal regarding string escapes: The only characters you must escape are '\', '"', and control codes (anything less than U+0020).

So you can just use the $ symbol as is in a JSON string.

Ok, scratch that... use "\\$". The "\\" is necessary because you need to escape the backslash for JSON.
