I found a small bug when using footnotes in a table. If a dollar
sign is used with no space after it, the dollar sign and the character
after it disappear on the output. If a space is left after the
dollar sign the output looks "correct".

I was using the MEMO doctype.

That's cuz the tag translator thinks that $150.00 is actually:
Argument#1 followed by 50.00
Arguments to tags are numbered $1 to $9.
A <literal>($)150.00 would also work, till the fix comes around.
Note that this is a problem that appears only within arguments when
a dollar sign is immediately followed by a number.

Karl's explanation (.1) is correct, but that does not mean
that you have to be careful never to put a $1 in an argument!
There are plenty of tags that do not attempt to "interpret"
the $1 in their arguments and therefore will present no
problem in this respect...
Be sure to report all such bugs, however, so we can fix 'em.
