+ can span multiple lines and contain unicode characters.
+</p>
+<p>
+ The <code>&lt;&gt;</code> operator can be used to concatenate strings.
+</p>

+ Several escape sequences are supported:
+</p>
+<ul>
+ <li><code>\"</code> - double quote</li>
+ <li><code>\\</code> - backslash</li>
+ <li><code>\f</code> - form feed</li>
+ <li><code>\n</code> - newline</li>
+ <li><code>\r</code> - carriage return</li>
+ <li><code>\t</code> - tab</li>
+ <li><code>\u{xxxxxx}</code> - unicode codepoint</li>
+</ul>
