So, escaping.

So, for configuration parsing, escaping is a big thing.

So, for coala’s config parsing, it looks like having whitespace at the end of a value is forbidden. The whole codebase makes sure of that!

So, for this week, I am going to try to solve that.

So, at first, I have to make sure that the whitespace doesn’t get stripped while parsing. The whitespace will be escaped at first. The second stripping happens after the unescaping, for which I have to make sure that it only happens if the last character is not escaped.
