And what about the opposite way? I like how Python is representing
strings. Good when you want to partially inspect something binary.

I have a text file, that contains text with escaped characters, eg:

hello\tworld.
this line\ncontains a break.
and this one a\x20binary character.
and this one\u0020an escaped unicode.
//----
The idea is that once parse line by line, I want 4 strings (1 for each
line), but with the escaped characters parsed to their normal value.
I'm having trouble doing this efficiently. I can do it with
std.conv.parse, but provided I preppend and append a double quote to my
strings first. It's not the most efficient way to do it, but it works.
It's kind of hackish though :/
I was wondering if there anything in phobos that could do this more
naturally? Or in an "idiomatic" fashion?
