![]() Fixes #472. This also partially addresses #195. However, as pointed out in one of the comment, there's no 'official rule' when it comes to what should be considered valid escape sequences. Haskell relies mostly on the AttoParsec library and Rust also has its own set of rules. This is in particular true for unicode escape sequences, but there is a common middleground for some usual single character escapes such as \n or \\. So we now at least support these. For more complicated escape sequence, please refer to #195 for now and keep the discussion going there. |
