Prevent asciidoc from converting a file path into a link

I'm manually converting a MS Word document to asciidoc format. By doing so I ran into an issue that I can't work around yet.

There is an example where I want to show the reader of how the syntax of a file link should look like. So I used this as an example:

file:///<Path>/<to>/<Keytab>

Asciidoc now renders this pseudo link into an actual link and warns me about this while converting my asciidoc document into HTML and PDF.

Usually, I would simply use the [source] element to prevent the link rendering. But the file link is part of a table.

[options="header,footer",cols="15%,85%"]

|=======================

|parameter|usage

|keyTabLocation    |file:///<Path>/<to>/<Keytab>

|=======================

Is there a way to prevent the rendering/convertion of the file link?

Okay, I found the solution. I had to escape the whole macro using a \ at the beginning.

So this did the trick:

[options="header,footer",cols="15%,85%"]

|keyTabLocation    |\file:///<Path>/<to>/<Keytab>
