That's good on format-strings and stuff you can do with %, but that isn't what 
I'm asking about. I'm asking about straightforward NSString literals, such as 
@"this\nsort\tof\u2022thing". You can learn about the \n and \t from K&R, but 
how would you learn about \u2022?_______________________________________________
