DataKinds: No escaping of type level strings?
Opened this issue · 1 comments

With this file:
{-# LANGUAGE DataKinds #-}
valueLevelString = "This is a value level string with a \""
type TypLevelString = "This is a type level string with a \""
it seems that prettyPrint does not escape the type level string:
ghci> parseFile "/tmp/Test.hs" >>= putStrLn . prettyPrint . fromParseResult
{-# LANGUAGE DataKinds #-}
valueLevelString = "This is a value level string with a \""
type TypLevelString = "This is a type level string with a ""

This may be enough, unless there is a good reason that I don’t know why this wasn’t already done like this:
