6638    7.1.  Character Set and Escape Sequences
6639    
6640       Older versions of this protocol up to and including v1.1 only
6641       supported the standard ASCII character set (ASCII code 0 - 127)
6642       [RFC20], all younger versions of this protocol however support the
6643       Extended ASCII character set (ASCII code 0 - 255).  The same group of
6644       younger protocols also support escape sequences, but only for
6645       certain, explicitly declared parts of the protocol.  The supported
6646       escape sequences are defined as follows:

6694    
6695       Notice: due to the transition of certain parts of the protocol which
6696       now support escape sequences, a slight backward incompatibility to
6697       protocols version v1.1 and younger has been introduced.  The only
6698       difference is that in parts of the protocol where escape characters
6699       are now supported, a backslash characters MUST be escaped as well
6700       (that is as double backslash), whereas in the old versions a single
6701       backslash was sufficient.
