escapeshellcmd

Synopsis

escapeshellcmd(string): string

Area
Runtime\PS\Exec\escapeshellcmdareas

Description

escapeshellcmd returns $command with the shell metacharacters in it backslash-escaped, leaving quotes that come in pairs alone; escapeshellarg is the one to reach for, since this leaves a quoted argument's own contents live.

Usage

$value = escapeshellcmd($arguments);
$fn = escapeshellcmd(...);
