Summary0002358: foamDictionary always regards '.' as separator.
DescriptionfoamDictionary cannot manipulate dictionaries with '.' in the key since these are seen as the scope separator. E.g. in motorBike snappyHexMeshDict:

geometry
{
    motorBike.obj
    {


Attached version of foamDictionary adds a -scope option to specify a different scope character.

If the scope character is changed in foamDictionary shouldn't it be changed in the rest of OpenFOAM?

What happens if the file name is given as a string which will be interpreted as a regular expression:

geometry
{
    "motorBike.obj"
    {

Attached implements a fall-back at the dictionary level where at each level it first searches for motorBike, then motorBike.org etc. It does not need the -scope option anymore.
