REVISION SUMMARY
  In CoffeeScript, the character ` (grave accent) is used to insert JavaScript 
code, but in JavaScript that same character is used for templates. The 
templantes in embedded JavaScript code are done by prefixing backslashes, as 
mentioned in the CoffeeScript documentation [1].
  
  To do this I had to overwrite some JavaScript rules, since some contexts of 
`javascript.xml` contain` <IncludeRules context="Normal"/> `, where you can 
also insert templates.
  
  I also added the escapes supported by CoffeeScript, which are the same as 
JavaScript [2], with the exception of the octal escapes.
  
  All changes were tested using the CoffeeScript playground [3].
