Let me know if it's clear in the newest version, with this note:
Here, ``encoding: unicode_escape`` in the initial comment is an encoding declaration. The ``unicode_escape`` encoding instructs Python to treat ``\u0027`` as a single quote (which can start/end a string), ``\u002c`` as a comma (punctuator), etc.
Huh. Is that level of generality actually still needed? Can Python deprecate all but a small handful of encodings? ChrisA
