• [amp] - output a “&”.
• [apos] - single quote “'”
• [asterisk] - asterisk / start symbol “*”
• [blank], [space] - output a blank/space char “ ”.
• [bSlash] - output a backslash char “\”.
• [colon] - output a colon “:”.
• [comma] - output a comma “,”.
• [dash] [minus] [hyphen] - dash / minus / hyphen symbol “-”
• [dollar] - dollar sign “$”

Please note that above syntax is also used as a short hand to use system var and user var. Therefore, none of the above replacement tokens can be used as a user variable names.

For example [curStateID] is equivalent to $getSysVar('curStateID') or [mDS:f1] is equivalent to $getData('myDS','f1').
