Hey @PXG743 , just to confirm my understanding, is it correct that your issue is the inability of op to parse the template file (i.e. to interpret the special characters)?

If so, a workaround for this would be to pipe the file into the command, and to parse it manually, such as:

Let me know if this serves your use-case. Looking forward to hearing from you!
