escaped backslash results in new line character if followed by 'n' or 'r' #100

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Decode a string that contains an escaped backslash followed by 'n' or 'r' like 
this

JSONObject jsonObject = (JSONObject) JSONValue.parse( "{\"path\" : 
\"C:\\nothing.png\"}" );
String path = (String) jsonObject.get( "path" );
System.out.println( path );

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The output should be: 

C:\nothing.png

But instead it is: 

C:
othing.png

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Version 1.1.1 on Windows 8.1 x64

Your slash is escaped by Java in this example. The correct code should be the 
following:

JSONObject jsonObject = (JSONObject) JSONValue.parse( "{\"path\" : 
\"C:\\\\nothing.png\"}" );
