Dollar symbol removed when showing autocomplete results

[flipsiderich]

Thanks for atom-inline-autocomplete, this is similar to the most useful feature in Komodo IDE which I've used for years. I develop in Perl and find that if I hit Esc to trigger the auto-complete with your package, any preceding '$' or '%' character is removed, e.g. if my code is:

!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
my $variable = 123;

Then I type:

$v

and then hit Esc, I end up with:

variable

i.e., the '$' has been removed.

I can't seem to duplicate this issue, it might be another package that conflicts with this.

This happens because $ is not in "Non Word Characters" list. I had the similar issue with PHP.
This list can be found under the Preferences => Packages => language-perl => Settings
