How should I proceed to document the component and auto-document
myself? Apparently I should read the source code...

It's a GTK project, with Gambas 1.9.49.

I'm rather new to Gambas, I didn't know & was a shortcut _also_ in
Message boxes. I thought it was only for menus.

When I run my project, in console I have:

gContainer() 135452672
ldap_init is correct.
(&(debbugsID=foo)(debbugsPackage=bar))

The last line is a PRINT strLdapQuery.
But Message.Info(strLdapQuery) shows:

( (debbugsID=foo)(debbugsPackage=bar))

The "&" character wasn't "now shown", was "converted to a space".
In fact, if I double it ("&&"), I get a double space in Message.Info():

(  (debbugsID=foo)(debbugsPackage=bar))

However I think that shortcuts in Message boxes are useless: they
should be used only in menus. Am I wrong?
