Ie. as long as it's escaped (has a \ before it) in the input before reaching lt-proc, it works just fine. The "apertium" command does this automatically, by calling apertium-destxt (or -deshtml etc.) before lt-proc and the rest of the pipeline. Using \ in dix files works just fine, no escaping needed there. If it's not part of a word, as in the sequence "om/gillade/älskade", it'll be treated as a space character (this happens to any character that's not in <alphabet>, so two words separated by some odd character like · should also be analysed as two separate units).

You need to escape it in the terminal. You can use ' instead of " to avoid the shell interpreting ! and $, but then if you want to write «it's coming right for us!», you'll have to switch quote-method in the middle of the string: $ echo "It's" 'coming right for us!' | apertium … With longer examples it might be simpler to put it into a text file and do $ <file.txt apertium … -- Kevin Brubeck Unhammer GPG: 0x766AC60C ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Monitor your physical, virtual and cloud infrastructure from a single web console.
