+ <p>Older versions of this protocol up to and including v1.1 only

+                 however support the Extended ASCII character set (ASCII code
+- 255). The same group of younger protocols also support
+                 escape sequences, but only for certain, explicitly declared
+                 parts of the protocol. The supported escape sequences are
+                 defined as follows:

+ <p>Notice: due to the transition of certain parts of the
+                 protocol which now support escape sequences, a slight backward
+                 incompatibility to protocols version v1.1 and younger has been
+                 introduced. The only difference is that in parts of the protocol
+                 where escape characters are now supported, a backslash characters
+                 MUST be escaped as well (that is as double backslash), whereas
+                 in the old versions a single backslash was sufficient.
+ </p>
+ <p>The following LSCP commands support escape sequences as part
+                 of their filename / path based arguments and / or may contain
+                 a filename / path with escape sequences in their response:

+                 Note that the forward slash character ('/') has a special meaning in
+                 filename / path based arguments: it acts as separator of the nodes in
+                 the path, thus if a directory- or filename includes a forward slash
+                 (not intended as path node separator), you MUST escape that slash
+                 either with the respective hex escape sequence ("\x2f") or with the
+                 respective octal escape sequence ("\057").
+ </p>
+ <p>
+                 Note for Windows: file path arguments in LSCP are expected
+                 to use forward slashes as directory node separator similar
+                 to Unix based operating systems. In contrast to Unix however
+                 a Windows typical drive character is expected to be
+                 prefixed to the path. That is an original Windows file path
+                 like "D:\Sounds\My.gig" would become in LSCP:
+                 "D:/Sounds/My.gig".
+ </p>
+ <p>
+                 The following LSCP commands even support escape sequences as
+                 part of at least one of their text-based arguments (i.e. entity name,
+                 description) and / or may contain escape sequences in at least one of
