at-sign not working in user pre-build commands

So I want to run a pre-build program and pass it a file name and the project name

The on-line help says that $P gives you the file path and at-sign gives you the project name (or at least hints at that).

So I try: python ..\Utl\BumpVersion.py $P @

$P works fine but at-sign (@) just echoes as at-sign (@). I've tried @@ and $@, no joy.

Ideas?

    Both of those interpretations (the "gives you" one, and the "hints at" one) are wrong. You'll want to read the documentation on key sequence once more.
