what does it do ?

[TyShkan]

Returns a string with backslashes before characters that need to be quoted in database queries etc. These characters are single quote ('), double quote ("), backslash (\) and NUL (the NULL byte).

Strings in Lua can contain the
following C-like escape sequences:
\a bell
\b back space
\f form feed
\n newline
\r carriage return
\t horizontal tab
\v vertical tab
\\ backslash
\" double quote
\? single quote

maybe this will do .. ( not tested at all .. )

function addEscapes(str)
	local t = {
		[1] = "\"",
		[2] = "'",
		[3] = "\\"
		}
	for i , v in t do 
		if strfind(str, v) then
			str = gsub(str, v, "\\"..v)
		end
	end
	return str
end
