Yes, since it's used to delimit files in the list.

At least on Windows a backslash is not allowed on file names (Alongside 
many other such characters), but apostrophes are, and they effectively 
need to be escaped. Thanks for catching it.

I'll add a mention in the doxy about the need to escape certain characters.
