You chose poorly. :-)
For some reason, it doesn't know about \a.
case 'b': c = '\b'; break;
case 'c': return 0; /* exit */
case 'f': c = '\f'; break;
case 'n': c = '\n'; break;
case 'r': c = '\r'; break;
case 't': c = '\t'; break;
case 'v': c = '\v'; break;
case '\\': break; /* c = '\\' */
case '0':
...
Is this a bug?
