Took me a while to realize this was NOT the command I wanted for escaping potentially harmful characters in a string that would be used as part of a system command. Instead, I needed either escapeshellarg() (http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.escapeshellarg.php) or escapeshellcmd() (http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.escapeshellcmd.php)

(PHP 4, PHP 5)
quotemeta — Quota i meta caratteri
Descrizione

( string $str
)
Restituisce una versione di str con il carattere backslash (\) davanti ai seguenti caratteri:
. \ + * ? [ ^ ] ( $ )
Nota: Questa funzione è binary-safe (gestisce correttamente i file binari)
Vedere anche addslashes(), htmlentities(), htmlspecialchars(), nl2br() e stripslashes().

This function escapes characters that have special meaning in regular expressions. preg_quote() <http://php.net/manual/en/function.preg-quote.php> has similar functionality, but is more powerful since it escapes more characters (including one user-specified character).
