c# Discord BOT : send string with underscore (escape underscore in Visual Studio string)
4
I want to send string with several underscore "__hello__its_me_" but Discord interpret it as markdown and underline or italic my string.
I know I have to escape the underscore with backslash but in Visual Studio I can't escape underscore (unrecognized escape sequence).
How can I build this string and send it to Discord escaping underscore ?

you need to escape the backslash in C# (ie: "\_\_hello\_\_its\_me\_" ) in order to produce "__hello__its_me_" to Discord

Could do as @MLeblanc said as (s)he is quite correct. Personally, I would use the @"text" way of doing it. The @ symbol at the start of a string allows you to type precisely what you want into the string. No need to escape anything that way. (at least on the C# side). docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/csharp/language-reference/…

@DanRayson thanks that is what i'm looking for it's better than escape escape char.string a = @"__hello__";works perfectly.

Can you use this -var literalString = @"__hello__its_me_";Which is what @Ray Dawson wrote but with example code
