In abi.html:
Good news! It's simpler than the docs indicate. In the BNF for 'Template Instance Names', all the lines shown below can be deleted:
--------------
Width Number _ HexDigits
Width:
a
w
d
Width Number _ HexDigits: Width is whether the characters are 1 byte (a), 2 bytes (w) or 4 bytes (d) in size. Number is the number of characters in the string. The HexDigits are the hex data for the string.
---------
and change
"Number is for positive numeric literals."
to
"Number is for positive numeric literals (including character literals)."
