% task add "Buy bread & milk"

- Task itself interprets the commands, and it too can make mistakes. - For example, any colon : character will be interpreted by task as a - delimiter between an attribute name and its value. Currently there - is no workaround for this. + Note that if an & character (or any other character that needs + to be escaped for the shell) appears in the + filter of a + custom report + then it does not need to be escaped, as it never gets processed + by the shell. In other words, shell escapes need only be used + when typing task commands at a prompt.
