Usage: (c-string string)
Reform a string so that, when printed, the C compiler will be able to
compile the data and construct a string that contains exactly what the
current string contains. Many non-printing characters are replaced with
escape sequences. Newlines are replaced with a backslash, an n
, a
closing quote, a newline, seven spaces and another re-opening quote. The
compiler will implicitly concatenate them. The reader will see line
breaks.
A K&R compiler will choke. Use kr-string
for that compiler.
Arguments:
string - string to reformat
