ABOUT


This page provides a specialized tool for escaping strings. String escaping is the process of converting special characters into their escaped form using backslashes. This tool supports the following escape sequences:

  • backslash (\\)
  • double quote (\")
  • single quote (\')
  • newline (\n)
  • carriage return (\r)
  • tab (\t)
  • form feed (\f)
  • null character (\0)

The String Escape tool helps you convert special characters into their escaped form, making them safe for use in programming languages, configuration files, and other contexts where special characters need to be represented as escape sequences. This is particularly useful when working with strings that contain newlines, tabs, quotes, or other special characters.

As part of StringFlux, this tool can be chained with other operations for more complex transformations. For instance, you can escape a string and then format it, or unescape it back to its original form. Note that this is different from JSON Escape, which follows a strict, standardized set of escape sequences defined in the JSON specification.
