I think I did test and forgot to reply back, but anyway tested again and it seems good!

I believe I’ve solved the issue with the last merge request. It’s part of the master branch now and will definitely be part of the next version of Apprise. The escaping should work with or without a title now (the way it should have been).

If you need to install the master branch to try it out, this should work:

# Install the branch
pip install git+https://github.com/caronc/apprise.git
