What flavor of MultiValue system are you using?

Though I've never seen it "in the wild", I was surprised to discover that the syntax described is permissible in both D3 and QM.

Code was actually written in INFO-BASIC, part of Prime Information (back in the early 80's). It went through some updates when we transitioned to an IBM RS/6000 with Universe and UV Basic.

You're welcome. I used Info-Basic and VMark Universe basic for over 19 years at a previous company, long since gone. I came across a backup of our software catalog that basically ran the company, and was surprised to find a VSCode extension for it. I will check out the community!

Adding $ and potentially other special characters to the list; QM, for instance, allows for $ in labels but the linter currently does not recognize them as valid.
