Henri Yandell closed LANG-498.
------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

UnicodeEscaper.outsideOf(32, 0x7f) now works and would handle this case. Or if you want >= 7f, use 0x7e.

There is also a EscapeUtils.ESCAPE_JAVA_CTRL_CHARS and matching unescape. So your request is (currently anyway in trunk):

{code:java}
new AggregateTranslator(
            EscapeUtils.ESCAPE_JAVA_CTRL_CHARS,
            UnicodeEscaper.outsideOf(32, 0x7f)
        );
{code}

or:

{code:java}
EscapeUtils.ESCAPE_JAVA_CTRL_CHARS.with( UnicodeEscaper.outsideOf(32, 0x7f) )
{code}

I'm resolving this issue as I think this sufficiently simplifies your desire to share the escapeJava code.

> I needed to escape text to be print out to a file; mainly so that all non-ASCII characters (< 32 and >=127) are printed out as escapes (if available) or unicode escapes. This is a one-way conversion, there is no way to find out whether a String contained "\\n" or a newline before conversion, so I just set up escapeText() methods, no unescapeText().
> Please apply to the next release of commons-lang. :-)
