 In addition to literal code points, a number of "escapes" are supported.
 "Escapes" are the character `\` followed by another character, and are

+##### Escaped Whitespace
+
+In addition to escaping individual characters, `\` can also escape whitespace.
+When a `\` is followed by one or more literal whitespace characters, the `\`
+and all of that whitespace are discarded. For example, `"Hello World"` and
+`"Hello \    World"` are semantically identical. See [whitespace](#whitespace)
+and [newlines](#newlines) for how whitespace is defined.
+
+Note that only literal whitespace is escaped; *escaped* whitespace is retained.
+For example, these strings are all semantically identical:
+
+```kdl
+"Hello\       \nWorld"
+
+    "Hello\n\
+    World"
+
+"Hello\nWorld"
+
+"Hello
+World"
+```
+
+##### Invalid escapes
+
+Except as desribed in the escapes table, above, `\` *MUST NOT* precede any
+other characters in a string.
