```
/code [Stellar]>>> " bar \\\\ foo "
bar \\\ foo
```
Shouldn't that produce 'bar \\ foo' (One less backslash)? It seems like
it's not handling chained backslash escapes properly (or at least the way Java
does, which I assume is the template).
> Stellar string literals do not support quote escaping

> Right now, in stellar, we cannot represent a string literal that contains
> 'foo' if the string is quoted with ' or "foo" if the string is quoted with ".
> This is unfortunate and should be corrected.
