Special Characters
Most functions are not binary safe when using any special or markup characters, such as escape codes or those that expect null-terminated strings. A possible exception would be a function whose explicit purpose is to search for a certain character in a binary string.

Famous quotes containing the words special and/or characters:
“Nature is a setting that fits equally well a comic or a mourning piece. In good health, the air is a cordial of incredible virtue. Crossing a bare common, in snow puddles, at twilight, under a clouded sky, without having in my thoughts any occurrence of special good fortune, I have enjoyed a perfect exhilaration. I am glad to the brink of fear.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“For our vanity is such that we hold our own characters immutable, and we are slow to acknowledge that they have changed, even for the better.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
