Dear April

Can you show us an example of what you are trying to do and how it fails? There are rules about backspaces but I find that if one backspace does not work try two, three, four until it works. It would be better to understand the rules but life is short.

  Is there any way to parse files that include the \ character in a string?

When I try to use grep to extract strings with a pattern that includes "\"
it fails.

If there is no way to do it with R, is it possible with python or a bash
script?

Thank you,

April
