[RADIATOR] Colubris-AVPair

another issue I'm facing with Colubris-AVPair is...

i'm hardcoding the return-list attributes in the radius.cfg file. the
way HP WLAN controller works is, it may require some placeholders to
be coded and the placeholders that is understood by the HP WLAN
controller uses special characters like %, e.g., %E, %m... but
somehow, when I run radiator, these special characters get translated
by radiator on runtime. how do I code them to avoid radiator
processing these special characters?

below is how I've coded in radius.cfg file..
