Could this please be a configuration option then? Sometimes there are=20
things that need to contain these characters.
- Windows services and shares sometimes actually have a $ in them
- Passwords can have special chars in them (that is even encouraged)
- The empty string is not representable because ' and " are illegal.
The reason I hunted the discrepancy down is that we have a need for the=20
special chars, e.g. for the things above.
Or, instead of simply removing them, would it be possible to=20
backslash-escape them? That way they won't be dangerous any longer.
Hoping for a config option or other good solution,
Peter
