My main concern is how some languages escape different strings. For
example in perl:
#!/usr/bin/perl
$p = 'some value';
print "This 'is a' string: $p";
print "\n";
print 'This "is a" string: $p';
#EOF
The output is different for each, one escapes $p the other prints the
value. Though, in the example given I don't think there was any issue
of this.
