Is it possible to include [ or ] in a filename?

I understand that the filename tags use [ and ] to indicate the tag, ie [artist] or [album artist] or [disc].

I would like my FINAL filename to be: [B]Best of Oldies but Goodies, Volume 1 - 1.04 - Sea Cruise [Erankie Ford][/B]
I can get this: [B]Best of Oldies but Goodies, Volume 1 - 1.04 - Sea Cruise (Frankie Ford),[/B]
but the closest I can get to what I want is this: [B]Best of Oldies but Goodies, Volume 1 - 1.04 - Sea Cruise [ Frankie Ford ].[/B]

I would like to eliminate the spaces. The code I'm using is this: [B][IFVALUE]album artist,[album artist],[IFCOMP]Various Artists[][IF!COMP][artist][][]\[album]\[album] - [disc].[track] - [title] [ [artist] ][/B].

Is there some marker I can use to allow [ or ] in the code? And I would Like the first directory level to be either the first initial of the artist or Various Artists. Is that possible?

M => Moody Blues, The=>Long Distance Voyager=>Track1, Track2, etc., OR
Various Artists=>Long Distance Voyager=>Track1, Track2, etc.

I can do this in MusicBrainz (Picard) but would greatly like to skip that step if possible.

Why not remove the space after the left square bracket and before the right square bracket? e.g.
[IFVALUE]album artist,[album artist],[IFCOMP]Various Artists[][IF!COMP][artist][][]\[album]\[album] - [disc].[track] - [title] [[artist]]

Based on your current naming string, try this:
[IFVALUE]album artist,[GRAB]1,1,[album artist][],[IFCOMP]Various Artists[][IF!COMP][GRAB]1,1,[artist][][][]\[IFVALUE]album artist,[album artist],[IFCOMP]Various Artists[][IF!COMP][artist][][]\[album]\[album] - [disc].[track] - [title] [[artist]]
