Hmmm...strange, I didn't see Rick's mail:-(
Sure the forward slash is better, not to cause this confusion.
But I am curious, since when, I mean, since which version
Windows start to accept forward slash?

It's something like "\\Borland\\Bcc55\\Include", a Python string.
I want to use this "string" in a subprocess command as a parameter.
Obviously this command can only recognize "\Borland\Bcc55\Include".
I know there must have an easy way to convert it, but just can't figure
it out :-(
I would suggest substituting all backslashes with forward slashes, that
way, the printed version and the internal escaped version won't be
confusing to you. And besides, which is easier to read?
This?
"\\Borland\\Bcc55\\Include"
Or this?
"/Borland/Bcc55/Include"
???
