In a program I'm writing I have a function for escaping characters which
are reserved or problematic in LaTeX. I would like to have a corresponding
function for ConTeXt, so I'm wondering which ones are
different/superfluous/missing from a ConTeXt perspective in the following
list (sorry about the formatting!):
'{': "\\{"
'}': "\\}"
'_': "\\_"
'%': "\\%"
'#': "\\#"
'$': "\\$"
'&': "\\&"
'`': "\\textasciigrave{}"
'^': "\\textasciicircum{}"
'~': "\\textasciitilde{}"
'\\': "\\textbackslash{}"
'|': "\\textbar{}"
'<': "\\textless{}"
'>': "\\textgreater{}"
'[': '{[}'
']': '{]}'
Note that I'm not looking for accented letters, Unicode quotes and dashes
etc. I'm assuming that people in the year 2021 are using an UTF-8-aware
engine (and my corresponding HTML escape function similarly caters only to
& < > " ').
TIA,
/Benct
