Problem converting block of string to clipboard when there is ^ character in rebol

Let's say I have this block:

Yuml-Output-List: [    {note: Wordpress Profiles{bg:beige}
[Blogger]^[User]
[Admin]^[Blogger]
[Author]^[Blogger]
[Subscriber]^[User]
}

{note: Blogger Role{bg:b开发者_JAVA百科eige}
[Blogger]-(Manage Posts)
}

{note: Admin Roles{bg:beige}
[Admin]-(Manage Site)
(Manage Site)>(Manage Users)
(Manage Site)>(Manage Themes)
(Manage Site)>(Manage Plugins)
}

]

If I want to copy the result to the clipboard with this:

clipboard: copy ""
foreach element Yuml-Output-List [
append clipboard element
append clipboard newline
append clipboard newline
]
write clipboard:// clipboard

I get ESC character INSTEAD of ^:

note: Wordpress Profiles{bg:beige}
[Blogger]ESCUser]
[Admin]ESCBlogger]
[Author]ESCBlogger]
[Subscriber]ESCUser]


note: Blogger Role{bg:beige}
[Blogger]-(Manage Posts)


note: Admin Roles{bg:beige}
[Admin]-(Manage Site)
(Manage Site)>(Manage Users)
(Manage Site)>(Manage Themes)
(Manage Site)>(Manage Plugins)

So how to get rid of the escape output ?

---

Since this is a REBOL string, the ^[ represents an ESC char as the ^ is used for escape sequences.

So, what you want to do is replace your existing ESC char with a caret and a left bracket like this:

replace/all source "^[" "^^["

Note the ^^ as you need to escape the ^, and the left bracket is now no longer escaped.
