NAME

       auparse_set_escape_mode - choose escape method

SYNOPSIS

       #include <auparse.h>

       void auparse_set_escape_mode(auparse_state_t *au, auparse_esc_t mode);

DESCRIPTION

       auparse_set_escape_mode  is  used  to  set the escaping method that will be used to output
       interpretted text. The choices for the mode variable are:

              AUPARSE_ESC_RAW
                     No escaping of any kind is done.

              AUPARSE_ESC_TTY
                     Escape TTY control characters so that they are  harmless  to  display  on  a
                     terminal.  When  any control character is found, they are displayed as octal
                     numbers. This is the default mode that the auparse  library  is  initialized
                     with.

              AUPARSE_ESC_SHELL
                     Besides  escaping  control characters, this will escape some characters that
                     can cause problems when used  with  shell  scripting.  Any  escaped  control
                     characters  are  displayed  as  octal  numbers. Other escaped characters are
                     proceeded with a backslash. The additional characters it escapes are: " '  `
                     $ \

              AUPARSE_ESC_SHELL_QUOTE
                     Similar  to AUPARSE_ESC_SHELL but expands the character set to include shell
                     operators. Any escaped control characters are displayed  as  octal  numbers.
                     Other  escaped  characters  are  proceeded  with a backslash. The additional
                     characters it escapes include: ; '  " ` # $ & * ? [ ] < > { } \

RETURN VALUE

       None
