	#EscapeChar (and explanation of escape sequences) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		The escape character is used to indicate that the character immediately following it should be interpreted differently than it normally would.
		When a.aut script is auto-converted into a.ahk script, the backslash escape character is globally replaced with the accent character.

	Character Sets: MARC-8 Environment (Library of Congress)
		Graphic character sets may be represented by either 8 bits per character, or, where a larger number of characters needs to be accommodated by the character set, by more than 8 bits codes per character (usually in multiples of 8).
		I is the Intermediate character sequence, which may be one or more characters in length and indicates whether the set is designated as the G0 set or the G1 set and whether the set has one byte or multiple bytes per character.
		Escape sequences to designate alternate graphic character sets may occur wherever the alternate characters are needed, e.g., within a word, at the beginning of a subfield, or in the middle of a subfield.

	Escape Sequences - The GNU Awk User's Guide
		One use of an escape sequence is to include a double-quote character in a string constant.
		In a regexp, a backslash before any character that is not in the previous list and not listed in GNU Regexp Operators, means that the next character should be taken literally, even if it would normally be a regexp operator.
		Suppose you use an octal or hexadecimal escape to represent a regexp metacharacter.

	Help: Escape Character
		The default escape character is a caret (^, ASCII: 94).
		If you follow the escape character with any other character, the escape character is removed and the second character is copied directly into the command line.
		The command processor recognizes this use of the escape character to signal line continuation: it removes the escape character and appends the next line to the current line before executing it.

	Escape Sequences (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		An escape sequence is a sequence of characters that begin with a back-slash and have special meaning inside a string.
		Although you type 2 characters, an escape sequence is treated as a single character and is also called an escape character.
		Escape sequences are typically used to format character-based output (i.e.

	W3C I18n FAQ: Using character entities and NCRs
		Using character entities in XML may become problematic if the entities are defined externally to your document and the tools that process the XML do not read the external files.
		Escapes can be useful to represent characters not supported by the encoding you choose for the document, for example, to represent Chinese characters in an ISO Latin 1 document.
		A particularly useful role for escapes is to represent characters that are invisible or ambiguous in presentation.

		The escape sequences in the table were found to work when printing to a browser, but offhand I can't think of any useful application for them.
		In the final table are listed the escape sequences which don't work as advertised in print statements that are output to a browser, but may be useful in other situations.

	Character Sets: Introduction (Library of Congress)
		A character representing a mark, point, or sign used in conjunction with alphabetic graphic characters to distinguish them in form or sound (usually intended to be displayed above or below an alphabetic graphic character).
		The characters are always recorded in their logical order, from the first character to the last character, irrespective of the direction they are intended to be read.
		A graphic character whose use is followed by the forward movement of the out device to the next character position.

	How Bob Bemer Invented the ESCAPE Sequence and Key
		I put in the escape character as a set member, but a Stretch code for that did not appear in the 1960 survey [4] of internal computer character codes because the set was already frozen.
		One is to assign additional characters to presently unassigned 8-bit codes; allowance should be made for certain control codes which will be needed for communication and other devices and which are intended to occupy the high end of the code sequence.
		Thus, whenever the shift character is encountered, the next character (or group of characters) identifies a new character set, and subsequent codes are interpreted as belonging to that set.

	Escape Art
		A character using this proficiency has a chance to escape bindings such as ropes, chains, straight jackets, handcuffs, stocks, etc...
		The character trying to escape may make one proficiency check, per set of bindings, provided that the character is not under close watch for one or more hours.
		If a character has Pick locks abilities then attempts to escape from bindings with locks may be attempted as a normal Escape art check and by using Pick Locks ability at a -20% chance.

		In this mode, the escape character is set to the tilde (~) character, unless modified by the -e option.
		The initial value for the interrupt character is taken to be the terminal's intr character.
		Special characters are characters that get mapped to TELNET commands sequences (like ip or quit) or line editing characters (like erase and kill).

	The original paper on the ESCAPE character principles
		A simple device that I call the "escape" character will allow as many separate and graded standards as there are bit combinations on any number of tracks, although it is certainly not (sensible?) to have more of these than absolutely necessary.
		In hardware, the "escape" character can be made to interrupt to set relays or other switching devices to select one of a variety of readers or decoders.
		For example, the Baudot 5-track code for paper tape already has the "escape" combination assigned to "Letter Shift." Fieldata code has this same drawback, at least in the August 1959 version, in that this code is assigned to the letter Z and to Backspace.

	ESC
		Short for escape, esc is a key located on a computer keyboard that allows a user to cancel or abort operations.
		Escape also refers to an escape character, an escape is often a single forward slash (/) in programming or a period forward slash (./) in Linux and Unix operating systems.
		An escape enables a user to perform a special function or to have a character treated as plain text and not a function.

	G2 Character Support
		Use the \ (backslash) character as the escape character for encoding a character in the Gensym character set that is a Japanese, Korean, or Russian character.
		Use the ~ (tilde) character as an escape character to encode a special character in the Gensym character set for importing text into G2.
		Thus, to encode a Japanese, Korean, or Russian character, you specify a series of characters that signify two or three 8-bit values, represented as hexadecimal values.

		An escape sequence is an expression element that begins with a backslash character ("\").

		Hexadecimal numbers are escape sequences that begin with a backslash-lower-case-x ("\x"), and are followed by one or more hexadecimal digits (the decimal digits 0 - 9, and the upper/lower case letters A - F).

	Dinkumware, Ltd. - Compleat Libraries Reference - Characters
		Characters play a central role in Standard C. You represent a C program as one or more source files.
		A multibyte character can be a one-byte sequence that is a character from the basic C character set, an additional one-byte sequence that is implementation defined, or an additional sequence of two or more bytes that is implementation defined.
		Since all members of the basic C character set have byte values in the range [0x00, 0x7F] in ASCII, EUC meets the requirements for a multibyte encoding in Standard C. Such a sequence is not in the initial conversion state immediately after a byte value in the interval [0xA1, 0xFe].

	[Ping] Japanese text encoding
		It includes 6879 characters, among which are the hiragana and katakana syllabaries, 6355 kanji, the Roman, Greek, and Cyrillic alphabets, the numerals, and a number of typographic symbols.
		The characters are arranged in a 95-by-95 grid, which usually becomes a row number from 33 to 126 and a column number from 33 to 126.
		There are many registered escape sequences for different character sets and languages; ISO-2022-JP recognizes a subset of these escape sequences relevant to Japanese.

	HL7 Escape Sequences
		The most common use of these escape sequences is to escape the HL7 defined delimiter characters.
