    @summary
      Escapes a string so that it can be safely used in a Bourne shell command line.

    @return
      A string of characters with metacharacters converted to their escaped form.

    >* Note:* that the resulting string should be used unquoted and is not intended for use in double quotes nor in single
    quotes.

    This function behaves the same as ruby's Shellwords.shellescape() function.
