Dear list,

I swear I searched the internet, but I guess the terms are too generic.
The question is: is there a safe way to escape the square brackets,
preventing them to be eaten by the previous command? For example:

\item [this should be in brackets]

My solution is:

\define\leftsquarebracket{[}
\define\rightsquarebracket{]}

\item \leftsquarebracket this should be in brackets\rightsquarebracket

I'm pretty sure there is already a built-in command for them, so I'm
asking the list.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards

--
