Re: [cc65] Control characters within .ASCIIZ

While we're on the topic, has it ever been considered to implement
escaping for strings and character literals?

Something like:
.byte "foo \" bar"

and:
.byte '\''

Right now, the first case of course can be worked around with:
.byte "foo ", '"', "bar"

and the second case with:
.byte .strat( "'", 0 )

But neither are very clean looking solutions. The downside to
implementing escaping now would be possibly breaking some old source
(since \ would also need to be escaped in this case).
