Hi
Is there a reason why we have to escape the character ' (apostrophe) when used in a character literal? For example, we have to write '\'' instead of '''.
This is what Ada does. I think that's a reason enough to keep things the way they are. It does actually make syntax hilighting more complex, and introduces another special case. It's also no longer "the same" as strings, since """ doesn't mean "\"".
