29     * <p>
30     * Here is the rationale. First, filename patterns do not include escape
31     * combinations such as \r or \n. Moreover, characters which have special
32     * meaning in logback parsers, such as '{', or '}' cannot be part of file
33     * names (so me thinks). The left parenthesis character has special meaning
34     * only if it is preceded by %. Thus, the only characters that needs escaping
35     * are '%' and ')'.
36     * 
37     * <p>
38     * Note that this method assumes that it is called after the escape character
39     * has been consumed.
