I'm confused. '\040' is a regular ascii space character (040 = 32
decimal). What's unusual about either of these strings?

Sorry, I was confused by what the actual content of the NSString was in my app. It turned out it was @"hello\\040world". I would still like to get that
to print as "hello world" though, not "hello\040world".

Well... that's not UTF-8, for sure. You might call it ANSI C string
encoding. Looks like Foundation can handle escapes like this as
NSNonLossyASCIIStringEncoding.

Thanks! That was the nudge in the right direction. The code below gave me what I was after.

NSString *stringA = @"hello\\040world";
NSData *data = [stringA dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSLog(@"%@", [[[NSString alloc] initWithData:data encoding:NSNonLossyASCIIStringEncoding] autorelease]);
