Firstly, you want to say '\\' for a slosh (just as you would say '\n' for a
linefeed).
However, you really should use the os.path module, in particular
os.path.split().
Have a read of:
http://docs.python.org/3/library/os.path.html#module-os.path
http://docs.python.org/2/library/os.path.html#module-os.path

Isn't that a copyright symbol? I'd have a look at the "uncidoedata" module,
myself.
