I think, single quotation do not need escape.

At least Dota 2 interprets \' as they are.

Could you the a file that reproduces the issue?

So the issue is that when you dump a dict, then ' are escaped, correct?

Here are all the characters they escape from the SDK, which includes ': https://github.com/ValveSoftware/source-sdk-2013/blob/0d8dceea4310fde5706b3ce1c70609d72a38efdf/mp/src/tier1/utlbuffer.cpp#L54-L69

I guess the only way to resolve this is introducing a parameter to enable/disable escaping. That will also resolve #28

Yes. But, I want to exclusion only '.
I need to escape another characters.
The SDK is Source1.
Dota2's SDK is Source2.
Perhaps the parser of Source1 is not the same as the parser of Source2.
I'm using edited version of this library.
