Maltby, David G a e'crit :
See the archive on "ampersand"
I remember that I used something like formatting-instruction.
see :
formatting-instruction
This is an atomic flow object that inserts characters into the output without change. It supports the following non-inherited characteristic:
data
This is the string to be inserted.
It differs from normal data characters in the &, < and > will not be escaped.
Anyway, I did not use this for a while.


For those using Unix/Linux or cygwin, there remains the possibilty to insert some special chain and to change it afterwards using sed (or awk or another shell command).

(element TEST
   (make element gi: "OUTPUT"
      (string-append "Starsky " "JAECKLAAMPERSAND" " Hutch")
   )
)

cat output.html | sed 's!JAECKLAAMPERSAND!&!g' > real_output.html

This is very ugly, I know, but it can help.
