__unescape

Also documented in context in the full Functions and Variables reference.

The unescape function returns the result of evaluating a Java-escaped string. See also __char() above.

This allows one to add characters to fields which are otherwise tricky (or impossible) to define via the GUI.

Name	Required	Description

Examples:
