Thanks for the patch. I'm still going through it. I had to make one change. You were using Arrays.copyOfRange. However, Groovy-Eclipse must support the Java 5 JDK, so I changed it to System.arrayCopy.

I'm also considering removing escapes, so things like \n will be converted into actual newlines. Are you interested in doing this yourself?
