In this context, it might be useful to know that there are some codepoints in some Chinese multi-byte encodings, which contain a byte looking like a Backslash "\" 0x5C as trail byte. This can cause problems in C-like string literals where \ acts as a meta-character. Examples: in BIG5 (Win CP 950) Traditional Chinese U+03B1 maps to A3 5C U+4E48 maps to A4 5C U+4FDF maps to AB 5C in GBK (Win CP 936) Simplified Chinese U+2010 maps to A9 5C U+2558 maps to A8 5C U+4E57 maps to 81 5C
