The following notes apply to escape sequences:
-
Unicode escape sequences in octal are not recognized. Specifying an invalid Unicode escape sequence results in an error.
-
If an invalid escape sequence is specified, \ is deleted and then the subsequent character is treated as a normal character. For example, if escape sequence \v is specified, v is assumed.
If a key specifies a distinguished name (DN), escape the attribute value that makes up the distinguished name. The following table lists the characters to be escaped and the escape sequences.
