<p>These should all get escaped:</p>
<p>Backslash: \</p>
<p>Backtick: `</p>
<p>Asterisk: *</p>
<p>Underscore: _</p>
<p>Left brace: {</p>
<p>Right brace: }</p>
<p>Left bracket: [</p>
<p>Right bracket: ]</p>
<p>Left paren: (</p>
<p>Right paren: )</p>
<p>Greater-than: ></p>
<p>Hash: #</p>
<p>Period: .</p>
<p>Bang: !</p>
<p>Plus: +</p>
<p>Minus: -</p>
<p>These should not, because they occur within a code block:</p>
<pre>
<code>Backslash: \
Backtick: \`
Asterisk: \*
Underscore: \_
Left brace: \{
Right brace: \}
Left bracket: \[
Right bracket: \]
Left paren: \(
Right paren: \)
Greater-than: \>
Hash: \#
Period: \.
Bang: \!
Plus: \+
Minus: \-
</code>
</pre>
<p>Nor should these, which occur in code spans:</p>
<p>Backslash: <code>\</code></p>
<p>Backtick: <code>\`</code></p>
<p>Asterisk: <code>\*</code></p>
<p>Underscore: <code>\_</code></p>
<p>Left brace: <code>\{</code></p>
<p>Right brace: <code>\}</code></p>
<p>Left bracket: <code>\[</code></p>
<p>Right bracket: <code>\]</code></p>
<p>Left paren: <code>\(</code></p>
<p>Right paren: <code>\)</code></p>
<p>Greater-than: <code>\></code></p>
<p>Hash: <code>\#</code></p>
<p>Period: <code>\.</code></p>
<p>Bang: <code>\!</code></p>
<p>Plus: <code>\+</code></p>
<p>Minus: <code>\-</code></p>
