\typefile balks on filenames with $ characters in their names. Anything I can do about that?
Rename the file. It's an error if characters like that appear in a file name.
You could even rename it using Lua from within your TeX code.
In my book, moving to a beta product or not accepting what is a vaild filename according to the filesystem is a limitation of the program. Not ConTeXt or TeX defines what a valid filename is, the OS decides. I do not decide what the names of these files are, someone else produces them, and my work flow should be able to handle all valid filenames. I assume then the answer is no? (Con)TeX(t) can't handle this? G
