[GENERAL] Is it possible to specify an ESCAPE for a wildcard search using LIKEANY (...) - Mailing list pgsql-general

I recently stumbled over the need to use a wildcard escape character for a condition that makes use of LIKE ANY,
somethinglike: 

   select *
   from some_table
   where name like any (array['foo_bar%', 'bar_foo%']) escape '/';

so that the underscore wouldn't be treated as a wildard (I can't really change the values _inside_ the array as they
areuser_provided). 

The above throws a syntax error.

So my question is: Is there any way to specify an alternate wildcard escape when using LIKE ANY (..)?
