The above actually parses as "R{\xe9a}lisation" as
the "a" is considered to be part of the \x, too.

I'm open to syntax suggestions on how to work around this
one-
my proposal would be to allow the string to be encoded as
R\xe9/alisation, with the "/" delimiting the \x command.
Does somebody have a better idea for a syntax? Otherwise
I'll implement the "/" version tomorrow.
