You want to float the $ sign and have it preceded by asterisks?

Or, fixed $ sign and asterisk fill - like the example shown here?

If the former, I don't think so, but you could do it with a combo of %editw()and a find/substring operation to create a character field with the result.
Good candidate for a sub-procedure.

Question: Is it possible to code an edit word such that you get *both* a
floating dollar sign *and* asterisk fill?

And if so, how?
