Hi, I am trying to check a package via R CMD CHECK and it is failing with Error: '\s' is an unrecognized escape in character string starting "\s"
The culprit looks something like this: gsub('\\s\\(.*\\)',"","this is a (test, man) dude") which is correctly escaped with the "\\"'s -- but it seems that R CMD CHECK is pre-escaping the string when it reads in the code to check it. How do I get R CMD CHECK to let the "\\s" 's through? Thanks.
