[Freeswitch-users] escape in originate

[Michael Collins]

This is indeed the case. I'm looking switch_utils.c and it surely looks like
there is no means for escaping the commas. If you use a backslash then both
the backslash and the comma get passed through as-is.

Any suggestions on how to send through strings that contain commas?
