Hi,
is there a way to define a method say '$$' that would behave like '$'
and allow calls like 'a$$name'?
No, the parser handles a fixed syntax, and that expression is not
legal. You could do it with
a %$$% name
using the infix operator syntax. (I think the description in the R
Language Definition suggests this is not legal, since $$ is not a valid
name, but it does currently work and that's unlikely to change.)
