Re: escape characters to make a string literal

The specification seems ambiguous on this point. The definition of strings doesn't mention hex or octal escapes, but the definition of characters does. No relationship between characters and strings is specified. Characters are unicode, apparently; strings are unspecified. On Thursday, March
