Any online tool to apply escape characters to a given string for ant script

Question

Hi i want to replace a token value in ant script with following string

<TagType Name="some name" param1="prefix=%s" param2="_default" />

since we cannot give directly '<','"','%' into an ant script, we need to use escape sequences like '<','"'..

Is there any online tool which can apply escape characters for a given string? I hope already there are tools for this :)
