I've recently been serialising some data using Edn, and to date this has 
caused no problems. During some tests today, I serialised a string 
representing a file path that originated on a windows machine "\My 
Documents\somedoc.txt". Edn throws a runtime exception when reading this 
back claiming:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Unsupported escape character: \M

Of course it's possible for me to sanitise all strings going out to Edn, 
replacing \ with \\, but I wondered if there's a better way to do this. 
Could Edn read-string opts be used to persuade read-string to behave more 
conveniently ? Alternatively should I be using Transit instead ?

If I stick with Edn are there any other gotchas that should be sanitised ?
