I have a set of files, whose names contain various punctuation characters like # and $. E.g. FOO#BAR and BIZ$BAZ.
When editing a file via ":e" the command line completion works fine for file names with #. Typing ":e FOO#<TAB>" shows me files matching that pattern. The # is escaped by vim automagically and appears as ":e FOO\#xxx". The same does not work for files containing "$". No matches are produced when entering ":e BIZ$<TAB>". According to 'cmdline.txt' help, the "$" is interrupted as end of string. Is there a way to escape the "$" and treat it as a literal? Is there another way to edit/open files from the command line that will get around this issue and yet provide auto-completion of names? I'm not interested in using any plugins..
