It only works in *C99 or C++, and you have one too many backslashes.
In Xcode, you'll find the build setting "C Language Dialect"...

Not quite the case here. In the TextEdit example, notice that there are two backslashes, so the string literally contains the backslash character followed by 'U' followed by '2', etc. This is not the C99 universal character that you are thinking of, it is a feature of genstrings.
