I assume that character literals are intended to be like those in Clojure, however these are legal in Clojure: \<an actual space> \<an actual newline> \<an actual return> \<an actual tab> I don't think it would be a good idea to support these in edn as they are hard for a human to read unambiguously. I'd suggest requiring: \space \newline \return \tab ... and disallowing whitespace immediately following the \ introducing a character literal. // Ben -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
