The escape is just a symbol of the alphabet, reserved to indicate a context switch. What if the data uses every symbol in the alphabet and none can be reserved? A common example is image compression, where a pixel is represented by a byte (256 grayscales or colors). Since pixels can have any values between 0 and 255, what value can be reserved for the escape symbol in this case?
