Dear XCode I'm not even mad that

Dear XCode: I'm not even mad that somehow you let a ^S file into my source code.

It's that you didn't freakin' show me that it was there somehow...

At least swift gives a "illegal character somewhere". objc-mode it results in some bizarre error (that I've now seen often enough to know what's going on)

clang started whining about character code 19 (might have even said something like \u0019, which I had to go figure out if that was a hex code or decimal), and it's been so long since I've used XON/XOFF (which I guess the kids these days are calling DC1 and DC3) that I had to go look it up.

To then see that XCode wasn't showing it to me. Grrr.
