escape characters #91

there seems to be no way of adding an escape character to a string. simply putting the \ in the string breaks it.

Could you provide an example?

@dinedal query like this doesn't work and results with syntax error

textql -header -output-header -sql "
select distinct question
where question = 'what didn't you find?'
" events_event_id_attendees_answers

tried escape ' like this: \', '', "'"
