One more big complaint "THE BACKSLASH PLAGUE". ever tried regexp?

Yes.

exp = re.compile(r"no \problem \with \backslashes")

, or
file paths?.

You mean _dos/windows_ file path separator ? It was indeed a stupid choice _from microsoft_ to choose the by then well established escape char (the backslash) as a file path separator. But hopefully, Python handles it gracefully: you can either use raw strings (which I stronly advise you learn about instead of whining) or just the traditional unix one (forward slash) instead.

All because that little backslash char is a line
continuation character,

Totally clueless, as usual... Why don't you just READ THAT FUCKING MANUAL ?
