Your question isn't obvious. Why do you want to do this?
\n and \012 are the same thing - just two different ways to represent a linefeed.
You'll need to be more specific. Do you mean that you really have a literal \
character followed by an 'n' character rather than a single special character
\n (newline) embedded in a string?
Something like this would convert the spec chars into 4-char ascii strings
that represent the chars in octal, but I doubt that's what you want:
s/([\r\t\n])/sprintf "\\%03o", ord $1/eg;
Maybe you should just create a conversion hash and use that to do what you want
using the characters as the keys and whatever you want them to become the values.
