   Due to bizarre circumstances, I have to use four backslashes (\\\\) every time I want to add a slash to this command. o_O #bash #odd

     @windigo aren't those forward slashes? I never know which one people mean when they say either one of em.

     @jk Nope, those are backslashes. I've heard a couple pneumonics for remembering, but I like that backslash is under the backspace key. :)

     @windigo I still wouldn't trust anyone to know what I meant if I said backslash. I'm just gonna call em "escape dealies."

     @jk Hah, that works! That's all they should be used for... but Windows uses them all over the jam. :P
