syntax.invalid_escape

Unknown escape in a string.

Area 1, Project layout and modules; not declinable; the next step is usually the agent's.

example
type Label = Text {    pattern: "a\qb"}
jadpo checkcheck failed: 1 error, 1 file

error \q isn't an escape Jadpo knows

--> main.jadpo:2:16

  |2 |     pattern: "a\qb"  |                ^^ unknown escape
reason
Inside a string, \ starts one of \", \\, \n, \r or \t.
next
Write \\q for a backslash followed by q (agent)
