Yes R on Windows have something like that you mentioned. I have only tried it
in conjunction with read.table.
I'm a bit surprised about the \\ on a linux OS. I'm also surprised that in a
file manager on Windows you can paste e.g. C:/users/frtog/Desktop and it can
find its way to the folder. Weird.

Does R on windows have clipboard support? I can do this on Linux:
> readLines(file("clipboard"))
[1] "C:\\Program Files\\R\\R-3.0.3"
- that's from a copy of a path with only single slashes in. But
help(connections) on my linux system doesn't mention the Windows
clipboard....
Some ppl on SO have assorted solutions involving Windows scripting tools
that tweak the clipboard so you can Ctrl-V a modified value:
