representing strings. Good when you want to partially inspect
something binary.

I have a text file, that contains text with escaped

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?
using formattedWrite, I can print it out the same way, but there
will also be the trailing " " I'll have to chop off manually
(hence why I have to pass through a formatted write first, as
opposed to a straight up writef).
