Parse error on "let @g='/}^M'" vimrc

[DanielKeogh]

There is an error when trying to parse macro's in .vimrc containing newline characters. (Specifically the special newline character made from CTRL+V CTRL+M)

My .vimrc contains this:

let @g='/}^M'

This is a form of let I haven't added support or yet. I'll look into adding it.

Control characters (especially ^M) are problematic for VsVim and many other editors. Vim supports a syntax to avoid having to include them in the .vimrc file:

let @g="/}\<CR>"

which works in both vim and VsVim.

Closing because there is a suitable workaround.
