Just to confirm.  Are these escapes case-sensitive or case-insensitive?

Good point, thanks for bringing this up.

The BNF, except where otherwise noted, is case-insensitive,

but this is meant to be one of those exceptions.  The syntax

is borrowed from R6RS where it's case-sensitive, and as far

as I know there is zero implementation support for the uppercase

versions of these escapes.

I've added the mnemonic escapes to the list of case-sensitive

exceptions to the BNF.
