stri_escape_unicode: Escape Unicode Code Points

Description

Escapes all Unicode (not ASCII-printable) code points.

Usage

stri_escape_unicode(str)

Arguments

str
character vector

Value

Returns a character vector.

Details

For non-printable and certain special (well-known, see also R man page Quotes) ASCII characters the following (also recognized in R) convention is used. We get \a, \b, \t, \n, \v, \f, \r, \", \', \\ or either \uXXXX (4 hex digits) or \UXXXXXXXX (8 hex digits) otherwise. As usual, any input string is converted to Unicode before executing the escape process.
