History for NGEscaping
??changed:
-
In the same way that you can escape !WikiNames with a !, how about using it to generally escape structured text formatting characters?
- ! escapes structured text if it directly precedes a formatting
character.
- !! actually puts a ! if it does indeed need to preceed a formatting
character.
On the Zope list, Jim said that he didn't like this suggestion. He suggested `` xxx '' instead.
!SteveA pointed out that Jim's suggestion makes code like *if s == '': return* difficult, and suggested `` xxx `` instead. (!FDrake agrees with !SteveA on this.)
