    <para>
     Returns a string with backslashes before characters that are
     listed in <parameter>charlist</parameter> parameter. It escapes
     <literal>\n</literal>, <literal>\r</literal> etc. in C-like
     style, characters with ASCII code lower than 32 and higher than
     126 are converted to octal representation. 
    </para>
    <para>
     Be careful if you choose to escape characters 0, a, b, f, n, r, 
     t and v. They will be converted to \0, \a, \b, \f, \n, \r, \t 
     and \v. 
     In PHP \0 (NULL), \r (carriage return), \n (newline) and \t (tab) 
     are predefined escape sequences, while in C all of these are 
     predefined escape sequences.
    </para>
    <para>
     <parameter>charlist</parameter> like "\0..\37", which would
     escape all characters with ASCII code between 0 and 31.
     <example>
      <title><function>addcslashes</function> example</title>
      <programlisting role="php">
<![CDATA[
<?php
$escaped = addcslashes($not_escaped, "\0..\37!@\177..\377");
?>
]]>
      </programlisting>
     </example>
    </para>
    <para>
     When you define a sequence of characters in the charlist argument
     make sure that you know what characters come between the
     characters that you set as the start and end of the range.
     <informalexample>
      <programlisting role="php">
<![CDATA[
<?php
echo addcslashes('foo[ ]', 'A..z');
// output:  \f\o\o\[ \]
// All upper and lower-case letters will be escaped
// ... but so will the [\]^_` and any tabs, line
// feeds, carriage returns, etc.
?>
]]>
      </programlisting>
     </informalexample>
     Also, if the first character in a range has a higher ASCII value
     than the second character in the range, no range will be
     constructed.  Only the start, end and period characters will be
     escaped. Use the <function>ord</function> function to find the
     ASCII value for a character.
     <informalexample>
      <programlisting role="php">
<![CDATA[
<?php
echo addcslashes("zoo['.']", 'z..A');
// output:  \zoo['\.']
?>
]]>
      </programlisting>
     </informalexample>
    </para>
