Parameters:

const(char)[] str string

void delegate(ubyte c) nothrow sink where the generated characters get sent

nothrow void writeCharLiteral(dchar d, scope void delegate(ubyte) nothrow sink);

Write a character, using a readable escape sequence if needed

Parameters:

dchar `d`	dchar to convert to literal
void delegate(ubyte) nothrow `sink`	sink for generated characters

nothrow void writeSingleCharLiteral(dchar c, scope void delegate(ubyte c) nothrow sink);

Write a single-quoted character literal
