Note we have voted to allow only the |...| symbols, freeing up \ outside of pipes. We have also voted to allow normal \n mnemonic string escapes in addition to hex escapes. This is what most implementations do, though it is incompatible with SCSH. I will update the fifth ballot results later today so we can provide a full summary and start editing the draft. -- Alex _______________________________________________ Scheme-reports mailing list [email protected] http://lists.scheme-reports.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/scheme-reports
