Shouldn't the double backslash amount to a single backslash in the
final output, while having no effect on the &() syntax that follows
it?
If, for example, there were a single backslash, then wouldn't that be
escaping the ampersand following it, hence telling PowerPro to ignore
any special meaning that the ampsersand normally has? (I would then
expect literally �&(Thingy)� in the output and not �12345678�.)
Apologies in advance�� I'm just having a hard time wrapping my head
around this.
