Title: Escape all characters special to markdown.

These commits will escape all characters that markdown handles specially. As you can see in the test changes, there are a lot of unnecessary escapes (e.g. for periods and hyphens). But the escaping is necessary in some cases. This might be better as an option, if some people prefer prettier output over escaping everything.
