On FICS, $<foo> prevents alias substitution. backend.c attempts to set the prefix (for preventing alias substitution) based on the ICS type. I don't know how well that works outside of FICS since that's all I ever use. I'm not sure which part of the code contains the prefix for premove, but it should be using the ics_prefix variable instead of '$' in order to presumably use the correct one based on ICS type.
As an aside: from a design perspective, this behavior should be encapsulated in the SendToICS routine(). neither frontend nor backend code should ever have to concern itself with prepending a prefix when issuing server commands. Yet pretty much every command we issue to the server technically should be prepended with a prefix if availabe. (You don't want 'set width 40' to become something else when the user has an alias for 'set')
