How would those not be "inline reserved characters" ?

How would you write a line that had an ASCII 10 in the middle
and get back that line that had an ASCII 10 in the middle, as
you can with the Ada compiler I currently use ?

I have no doubt that with Posix one could write a subset of Ada,
but that was not the question posed.
