Is there a way to convert a regular string to a raw string so that one could
get from '\bblah' to r'\bblah' other than parsing the string and modifying
the escapes?
Assuming you might mean something else, that something else might be:
s = r'no_tab_\t_here'
len(s.split()) == 1
len(s.decode('string_escape').split()) == 2
s = 'tab_\t_here'
len(s.split()) == 2
len(s.encode('string_escape').split()) == 1
