Issue #7022 has been updated by Jeff Weiss.
We need to make a decision about single string escape sequences. There's nothing explicit in the language guide about escape sequences, only variable interpolation. The tests in lexer_spec.rb:419 indicate that we're allowing an escape sequence in single-quoted string of \' and \\\\ (consistent with the Ruby rules for single-quoted string), but not allowing \$, \., or \n. ---------------------------------------- Bug #7022: Single quoted strings ending with \ not handed correctly https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7022 Author: R.I.
