StrEntities extends the string literals provided by the StrLiterals package. It adds support for HTML, LaTeX, Unicode and Emoji entities, provided by the packages:
This adds four ways of representing characters in the literal string,
\:emojiname:, \<latexname>, \&htmlname; and \N{UnicodeName}.
This makes life a lot easier when you want to keep the text of a program in ASCII, and
also to be able to write programs using those characters that might not even display
correctly in their editor.
\<followed by a LaTeX entity name followed by>outputs that character or sequence if the name is valid.\:followed by an Emoji name followed by:outputs that character or sequence (if a valid name)\&followed by an HTML entity name followed by;outputs that character or sequence (if a valid name)\N{followed by a Unicode entity name (case-insensitive!) followed by a}outputs that Unicode character (if a valid name)
