I only ever use Scala's \u???? escapes for one thing: writing `\usepackage foo` when I embed LaTeX in multiline strings. Like this: \u005cusepackage foo Just try writing it without them... Seriously, try it.

Wow, I remember arguing about this back when multiline strings were introduced, around 2006/7... and it's still going.

By the way ... what will be your next language/technology when this Scala thing is over? Would be interested in your ideas/plans!

I think I'll quit programming and become a writer. Or maybe Unison. /cc
