Thanks Scott. I thought of that, but couldn't see immediately how to do 
what I wanted. Could you help? :)

Btw, J Luis, thanks but notice the "\$" :) It certainly works without the 
"\" already :)

I was also trying my package StringInterpolations.jl. I could get this to 
work:

x = 2
@interpolate "I like \&x"

But this did not work

x = 2
s = "I like \$x"
@interpolate s

In the former case, the argument is a string. In the latter, the argument 
is a symbol. Any idea how I can fix this?

Here is the line in my package:
