If you don't want quotes to be sent then don't send them - my expectation would be that if you're driving this from the shell then the shell would not be passing unescaped quotes through to the program. For example: $ echo "Hello, world!" Hello, world! Here echo only saw the unqouted string so that's what it displays. If you're not using a shell and starting this from another program then I'd assume there's some way to generate unquoted arguments in whatever you're using. > > This appears to be requiring that anything passed into unescape() be a number which isn't something we'd obviously want? I'd expect the function to unescape things, not to do other random validation which may or may not be appropriate in context. > AG: so by design is expected that everything is accepted here, e.g \"1234qwert\\xde\\xad\"? If yes than I understood this tool wrongly. Yes, that's my expecation - it's just processing escape sequences and passing everything else through.
