Reference Section

## Name

scape — General text escaping for LaTeX active characters

## Synopsis

## A. Description

Certain characters must be escaped so that LaTeX will typeset them verbatim rather than attempting to interpret them as commands.

## Mapping Source

    <template name="scape">

                   <map from="&lt;" to="\textless{}"/>

                   <map from="&gt;" to="\textgreater{}"/>

                   <map from="~" to="\textasciitilde{}"/>
