My guess is that you're looking at the strings in the CodeWarrior debugger.
The slashes you see are artificial and not actually in the memory of the
device. The CW debugger is adding those when it displays the string to try
to make the string look like it might look in C source code. If you view
the memory attached to the string, you'll see that the slashes aren't there.
