    Description

      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.
