By the way, as of S-Lang pre-2.2.0-11, string literals can also be
delimited by backtics, see also
http://www.jedsoft.org/slang/doc/html/slang-4.html#Strings. In this way,
backslashes can often be avoided.

In recent S-Lang, the above statement is therefore equivalent to:
   define_syntax(`"""`, `"""`, '%', $1);

Cheers,

Manfred
