In addition to the escape sequences shown in the Base Definitions
volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Chapter 5, File Format Notation (
'\\' , '\a' , '\b' , '\f' , '\n' , '\r' , '\t' , '\v' ), "\ddd" ,
where ddd is a one, two, or three-digit octal number, shall be
written as a byte with the numeric value specified by the octal
number.
