Subject: Ruby String handling of escaped-type characters?

Here's the coding scenario:

I match an input string with regexp and store captuing group in an @instance
var.
The captured string may have 'difficult' characters such as ? " ' etc.
Considering that the regexp will capture all those chars, is Ruby smart
enough not to choke on them when they show up in a string
that will be used in various methods or expressions?
