> The backslash character is overloaded for use as a continuation delimiter as
> well as an escape character. However, the parsing logic does not presently
> handle this character consistently, which prevents the use of odd numbers of
> backslashes at the end of values. Here is a matrix of examples:
> ||Original value||Parsed value||Notes||
> |{noformat}
> key=value\
> {noformat}|{noformat}
> key=value
> {noformat}|Backslash treated as continuation delimiter|
> |{noformat}
> key=value\\
> {noformat}|{noformat}
> key=value\\
> {noformat}|Backslashes treated as literal characters|
> |{noformat}
> key=value\\\
> {noformat}|{noformat}
> key=value\\
> {noformat}|Final backslash treated as continuation delimiter, other
> backslashes treated as literal characters|
> |{noformat}
> key=value\\\\
> {noformat}|{noformat}
> key=value\\\\
> {noformat}|Backslashes treated as literal characters|
> There is a comment in Ini.Section#isContinued(String) that states:
> {quote}
> //find the number of backslashes at the end of the line. If an even number,
> the
> //backslashes are considered escaped. If an odd number, the line is
> considered continued on the next line
> {quote}
> However, there is no unescaping logic in either
> Ini.Section#toMapProps(String) (which calls #isContinued) or
> IniSection#splitKeyValue(String).
