[Brian MacWhinney]

Yes, you would need to add the $ sign.

Do I have to code the dependent tiers starting with the $ sign? I tried using the command "keymap +b1.2* +t%xcod  @" but it does not produce any results or output.

However, the type of code chain structure you seem to be studying might be better analyzed using either the KEYMAP or CHAINS commands.  Why don't you take a look at the description of those in the manual to see if they correspond to what you are trying to do.
