I just found a posting from 2007 saying, that escaping of an asterisk isn't supported by s9y. Is this still unsupported or is it now possible to escape this sign? If yes, how?
Is just wrote an article about some MySQL-stuff and had some minor problems with parts like "SELECT * FROM"
It would help if you'd reference that specific posting, because I don't know all postings of 2007 by heart. )
Basically asterisks can be used. Unless specific markup plugins are involved. then it depends on the markup plugin if and how special characters can be escaped.
You could always try to use a &#xxx; entity to reference special characters if they trigger something else...

We have some markup-plugins in use. GeSHi, NL2BR, Serendipity and Autotitle. And yes. Using &#xxx; is working very well.
