What is the reasoning behind the example of illegal immigration as a kind of escape? Why is this example, which is clearly inflammatory (and for anyone inclined to agree with it it is probably obvious), featured in the article? Ventifact 00:01, 8 May 2006 (UTC)Ventifact



Request: please mention the action of "escaping a (special) character".

For exemple, in Bash: using \ echo foo \#bar

in Perl: using \ in regular expressions print "found a dot\n" if $tmp =~ m/\./;

in Readline: not interpreting a command Control-V Control-A

in HTML: representing HTML commands literally You will produce <html> if you type &lt;html&gt;

etc.
