Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Changed arrows and dot to use ISO entity code
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

In certain cases, SASS was not compiling the prev-character, next-character, dot-character correctly.
May be a related issue: https://github.com/sass/sass/issues/1395

$slick-prev-character: "←" !default; The CSS output would turn into:
content: "←";

$slick-next-character: "→" !default; The CSS output would turn into:
content: "→";

$slick-dot-character: "•" !default; The CSS output would turn into:
content: "ΓÇó";

Using the ISO entities appears to have fix the issue, outputting the correct character in the CSS file:
$slick-prev-character: "\2190" !default;
$slick-next-character: "\2192" !default;
$slick-dot-character: "\2022" !default;

Into:
content: "←";
content: "→";
content: "•";
