Hi, I also need a function to "unquote" string, like this:
```d
assert(unquote(`\n`)=="\n");
```
Is there a way to do that?
I rolled my own for that recently:
```d
string dequote(string str) @safe pure {
if (str.length < 2)
return str;
if ((str[0] == '"' || str[0] == '\'' || str[0] == '`') &&
str[$-1] == str[0]) {
return str[1 .. $-1];
}
return str;
}
```
Oops, I misread what you were asking for. Was thinking quotes
like quotation marks, not backslashes.
