got unexpected token U in JSON

[veksha]

Tried to make VLS work in vscode (Windows).
"got unexpected token U"

it is because backslashes in JSON strings must be escaped: "C:\Users.." -> "C:\\Users.."

Same error here, I'm also running VSCode on Windows.
This should be an easy fix for someone who knows where the code for this message is, but I can't find it.

I found this:
https://github.com/vlang/v/blob/14148f3e5238d33e56db0d702227e818f9bfb8a3/cmd/tools/vls.v#L436

Thanks, i will create a fork tomorrow, hopefully fix it, and create a pull request.

Done, although i couldn't compile it to check it works, something about gcc not recognising -municode
