JavaScript Double Dollar Sign

I wrote this function. 🙂

There is no longer any special significance to the $$ prefixes. It was a notation that I used back when packer was popular. Packer would shorten variable names with this prefix. Nowadays Packer will automatically shorten variable names so this notation is redundant.

Short answer, the $ sign is a valid identifier in JavaScript so you are just looking at a bunch of ugly variable names. 😉
