I'm trying to understand that message but it's unclear
at a deep level.
Is a "raw string" supposed to be a different data type,
or is it supposed to be a different syntax for the string type?
The companison with shell syntax does not help, because I don't think
that question is meaningful for shell syntax. I don't know the othehr
languages referred to.
