Is there a way to specify a raw string (no escapes)?

[dropwhile]

When working with regex, additional escapes can be very confusing. In other languages, “raw strings” are often useful for this.

Does gleam support raw strings?
I looked around but didn’t find any documentation on it.. even the examples in the stdlib regex docs (example) show double backslash to escape the escapes.

Not currently, no.
