Escape Character

Some characters have special meanings in button or label texts, so they need to be escaped if they shall appear literally.

To do this you need to prepend the character with a backslash, as in

dlgLabel("Miller \\& Co.");

This will result in "Miller & Co." displayed in the dialog.

Note that there are actually two backslash characters here, since this line will first go through the User Language parser, which will strip the first backslash.
