Firefox does not display an escape character that Google Chrome does on Github. This character is used frequently as a delimiter in Source Engine games, so it being hidden can cause some issues in identifying where 1 parameter ends and the next begins.

In addition to this, when viewing the raw file on Github, the character correctly displays on Firefox as well, showing that the character being hidden is a bug: https://user-media-prod-cdn.itsre-sumo.mozilla.net/uploads/images/2022-12-19-15-05-40-1ac8f7.png

On the GitHub page you can switch to the Raw data tab as a possible workaround. You can also use the Inspector.

That ESC character fall in the 00-1F range of non-printable control characters, so I'm not sure whether Firefox should display it or not. Maybe Chrome uses a font that supports such a control character.
