as a hack I always do:
```d
writeln([s]);

because arrays get serialized like D strings, there will be
additional `[` and `]` though.
Sample output:
```
["Hello there \"uwu\" ``\x1B[Dabc\n"]
```

Also a bit of a hack.
```
import std.stdio : writeln;
import std.format : format;
void main()
{
string s = "one \"two\"\nthree four";
writeln(format("%(%s%)",[s]));
}
```
Yes! That's what I needed.
I wrapped it in a function like so:
```d
string quote(string s) {
return format("%s", [s])[1 .. $ - 1];
}
unittest {
assert(quote("one \"two\"\nthree four") == `"one
\"two\"\nthree four"`);
}
```
Thanks for your responses ^_^
