Just to be clear, there is a function to do this already: strc()
returns the value of the Nth byte in a string. The index
defaults to zero, so you can write strc("A") to get 65 right now.
With the new syntax, you can even write "A"[0] to do the same.
The problem (a minor one, admittedly) is that those are runtime
operations that have to generate code. What I really want is the
ability to just write the number 65 using some simple key
combination involving the character "A". :)
I think I'm leaning towards back quotes, but I'm still not sure.
Using backquotes has always meant something "special", and
character constants aren't very special...
