Hi Folks, especially Luciano.
Today I learned that the \ + name + space sequence for entering selected
Unicode characters meant that some valid Smalltalk could not be entered.
For instance:
'C:\' [space] (i.e. some reasonable Windows file path in a String
literal, followed by a space character)
"C:\" [space] (i.e. some reasonable Windows file path in a comment,
followed by a space character)
a \~ b (i.e. some weird but possible binary selector)
`a copyWith: $\` (i.e. some backtick compile time constant ending with a
backslash)
If Luciano or anyone thinks they really need this, we can add a preference.
Comments welcome.
Thanks!
