Why would it be necessary? Does it not work for some of your users?
One usually needs to escape characters so that the shell passes them
unmolested to the app it's about to start to run the command. But when
you use <exec>, or <cvs> which uses Execute underneath, you don't go
thru a shell usually.
Otherwise, check out Ant-Contrib on SourceForge, which has tools to
manipulate property text. --DD
