None.

===== Syntax =====

  * ''**escape** //xy//''

===== Description =====

Set the command character to //x// and the character generating a literal
command character (by triggering the ''[[commands:meta]]'' command) to
//y// (similar to the ''-e'' [[man:Command-Line Options|command line
option]]).  Each argument is either a single character, a two-character
sequence of the form "''^x''" (meaning "''C-x''"), a backslash followed by
an octal number (specifying the ASCII code of the character), or a
backslash followed by a second character, such as "''\^''" or "''\\''".
The default is "''^Aa''".
