why does a compiler have to fail just because i typed in something like
"NSString *myString = @[EMAIL PROTECTED]
"this is a sti\ckup";"? there's no escape
sequence \c so the compiler fails to compile it. why can't it be a
little smarter about how it does things and treat unknown escape
sequences as if they aren't escapes at all (if it's not in that small
set of sequences, treat it as 'copy the next character literally no
matter what it is'? \c becomes c
