The following in my filter:

/Subject: *!.*/ s=escape($MATCH2) log "Escaped (?) subject: " $s

Logs, i.e.:

Escaped (?) subject: Comment Added: On-board Sound doesn't work

Which is a problem, becuase I want to pass the contents of the subject in single quotes to a shell script. But the single quote IN the subject of course breaks it. I thought that's what escape was for?
