est -- String with escaped characters

The est module implements a string with escaped characters. The code is inspired by the proposal for escaped strings by Stephen Pelc and Peter Knaggs. The following conversion characters are translated:

String words

parse-esc ( c-addr1 u1 c-addr2 -- c-addr3 u3 )

Parse the escaped character in string c-addr1 u1, store the result in string c-addr2 and return the remaining string c-addr3 u3

parse\" ( "ccc<quote>" -- c-addr u )

Parse the input stream for a escaped string

s\" ( "ccc<quote>" -- c-addr u )

Create a string with escaped characters

,\" ( "ccc<quote>" -- )

Store a string with escaped characters in the dictionary
