Hi All,
I am trying to change

This works:
$ echo "a/b/c/d" | raku -ne 'my $x=$_; $x~~s:g|$(Q[/])|\\\\\\|;print $x
~ "\n"'
a\\\b\\\c\\\d
But this does not:
$ echo "a/b/c/d" | raku -ne 'my $x=$_; $x~~s:g|$(Q[/])|Q[\\\]|;print $x
~ "\n"'
aQ[\]bQ[\]cQ[\]d
How do I put a literal string in the
target of a regex?
Many thanks,

The guys on the chat line made me write a
better description and in the process I
figured it out!
$ echo "a/b/c/d" | raku -ne 'my $x=$_; $x~~s:g|$(Q[/])|$(Q[\\\])|;print
$x ~ "\n"'
a\\\b\\\c\\\d
I forgot the $() in the target!
