Introduction
Character processing is everywhere - particularly when working with ASCII. However, Swift's support for working with it is awkward and suboptimal. This proposal seeks to improve character processing support by allowing Swift integers to be written using single quoted character literals, which is much more consistent with other languages and will reduce a point of friction in string processing code.
