what's the syntax for character literal?

Only has string, ("a" 0) returns 97 looks to be a number. I would prefer having not to explicitly type out the ascii value of a corresponding character.

There isn't a syntax for character literals AFAIU, however you can do a compile-time thing with:

(chr "a")
# =>
97

Note that this only works for strings of length one - so in janet's case that means a single byte.

Many thanks!
