The escaping mechanism still had some bugs and it's generally not super straightforward to escape all necessary characters in typst markup so you don't get special behavior. For example, normally a
.does not need to be escaped but1. XYZwould start a numbered list.I noticed that one can also just interpolate a string literal with
#"...", this has the advantage that it's not treated like typst markup in the first place, so only"and\needs to be escaped, so it seems like we can just use Julia's own string escaping which already does that.
