I suggest taking a look at the extended string literals of SRFI-109
(https://srfi.schemers.org/srfi-109/srfi-109.html).
They are implemented in Kawa.

SRFI-109 literals reduce the issue with nested escapes.
One reason is you can use the delimters '{' and ']' in
the string without quoting as long as they're nested properly.
