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:

    ... there has been a very special man in my life for the past year. All I’ll say about him is that he’s kind, warm, mature, someone I can trust—and he’s not a politician.
    Donna Rice (b. c. 1962)

    To marry a man out of pity is folly; and, if you think you are going to influence the kind of fellow who has “never had a chance, poor devil,” you are profoundly mistaken. One can only influence the strong characters in life, not the weak; and it is the height of vanity to suppose that you can make an honest man of anyone.
    Margot Asquith (1864–1945)
