Help....setting up an Alias...
 
This is for Shattered Kingdoms, their coding for coloring uses $3 and then $3$I for an intense (bright ansi). The problem is, when I am trying to set up an alias that uses the $3$I colour coding, I am getting a syntax error for the $I portion... is there a way around this?

I solved the problem by putting "$3$I" and it seems to work now.

The $ symbol is used to denote a local variable, which your evidently not using. You could also escape the $ symbol using a ~.

Code:
~$3~$I


Would also work.
