Templater commands cannot contain <% or %>

[shui-dun]

The following script will throw an error: Templater Error: Template parsing error, aborting.
Template syntax error: Invalid or unexpected token

<%*
"<% %>";
%>

But the following script will not throw an error.

<%*
"hello";
%>

I encountered this issue when trying to output different content based on conditions.

<%*
if (!app.isMobile) {
	tR += "<% tp.file.cursor(2) %>";
}
%>

[shui-dun]

Temporary solution:

<%*
if (!app.isMobile) {
	tR += "<" + "% tp.file.cursor(2) %" + ">";
}
%>

Likely won't fix this. This broke when the plugin switched from using EJS to rusty_engine. I don't have the capacity or know how to update rusty_engine to support this. Anyone is welcome to make a PR to rusty_engine to support this.

Escaping the angle brackets is necessary in order for the example in your first comment to work.

Eg:

<%
"\<%  %\>"
%>

Temporary solution:

<%*
if (!app.isMobile) {
	tR += "<" + "% tp.file.cursor(2) %" + ">";
}
%>

Escaping the angle brackets and using backticks to declare tR as a template literal:

<%*
if (app.isMobile) {
	tR += `\<% tp.file.cursor(2) %\>`;
}
%>
