Substitute DAT won't replace Square Brackets

Hi there,

The Substitute DAT appears not to recognize square brackets, in either regular parameter mode, or when given as a python string in python parameter mode.

Bump. Iā€™m still having this problem, how to remove [ ] from a string in DAT space? Any solutions @pointshader?

The issue is it conflicts with the [] characters used to designate a list of characters to substitute. You can get around this by using the second input with entries ā€˜\[ā€™ and ā€˜\]ā€™, the backslashes telling it to not interpret the brackets as the start/end of a list.
