Quoting Syntax
The rules file supports a quoting syntax for representing nonstandard file names.
When generating a manifest for file names that embed tab, space, or newline characters, the special characters are encoded in their octal forms.
The following table shows the quoted form of special characters.
| Input Character | Quoted Character |
|---|---|
| (space) | \(space) |
| (tab) | \(tab) |
| (newline) | \(newline) |
| ? | \? |
| [ | \[ |
| * | \* |
