  Procedure kit for dealing with escape sequences in Icon character
  string representations.  Note that Icon escape sequences are
  very similar to C escapes, so this works for C strings, too.

  escapeseq() -- a matching procedure for Icon string escape sequences

  escchar() -- produces the character value of an Icon string escape sequence

  escape() -- converts a string with escape sequences (as in Icon string
              representation) to the string it represents with escape

  quotedstring() -- matching routine for a quoted string.
