Research direction

Start by reading the grammar rules and token examples in paths.md, especially the presentation of $crate. Update the wording or formatting so $ and crate are clearly shown as two tokens, then verify that the rendered documentation makes the separation unambiguous.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

A-grammar

The grammar rules should be clear that $ crate is two tokens. I think putting a space between them would be sufficient (such as in paths.md)
