Considering, though, that we're talking about a magic perl quoting
syntax, we could offer people the option of the following two:
q:io{C:\Windows} # Does what you want
q:io:qq:{C:\\Windows} # Does the same thing
Wouldn't that cover the bases pretty well?
My bad -- try these:
$file = "foo"
Q:io{C:\Windows\$file} # Results in "C:\Windows\$file"
q:io{C:\\Windows\\$file} # Results in the same thing
qq:io{C:\\Windows\\$file} # Results in "C:\Windows\foo"
HTH,
