Good idea... Maybe, just "addcomma" would be best. I'm against adding a general escape mechanism, because I think it's better to find a design that obviate teh need for it...

Hi,
Is there an escape character sequence to make special characters (',' and ';') in messages literal?
I need something like
+*--, |3
+*---+ | +*----------- | add2 $1, ( +*----------- | +*------------ | 0, 1, 2, 3 ( +*------------Whenever I try to type a \ in a message box, I get
: dropped : dropped
in the console output. This is on win2k, and PD 35-1.
I found one (maybe) related comment in m_binbuf.c :
/* add a binbuf to another one for saving. Semicolons and commas go to symbols ";", "'",; the symbol ";" goes to ";", etc. */
Is this only for internal housekeeping?
Another possibility to achieve this would be an 'add1' method, that adds the ',', just like 'add' adds a ';'.
Other solutions?
