OS4X Enterprise text template

Many OS4X Enterprise solutions (plugins like transmission PDF, email files, approve) use templates to dynamically generate text, often used as email. These templates can contain variables, which are dynamically replaced during processing. Variables are introduced by a "$" character. This way, XPath expressions are possible on the actual job state in plugins.

Variables end with the occurance of one of the following characters:

• whitespace
• '
• "
• $
• (
• )
• [
• ]
• <
• >
• :
• ;
• {
• }
• ,
• .
• `
• %
• newline character (\n)
• \
• &
• |
