I'm using the printf function to display some textual information. It is possible that the string may contain different symbols such as $#%^&* somewhere within the text.
I know that to handle the % that I need to use a %% to make the string evaluate correctly.
for example:
printf "strin%%g";
will display as strin%g <-- what I want
My question is are there any other symbols that will give me issue using printf like % does? and if so, how do I handle them?
Thanks so much!
