      Oh, I know. I went through it once.

      The tricky bit is that a lot of scripting/programming languages reserve the backslash for special stuff. For example, “\n” means a line break. When you pasted the right arm (which is seen on the left ; ) ), lemmy’s editor expected a special thingy, so it was kind and removed the backslash for you. The secret is to post it with a double backslash, like this: "\"

        I’m familiar with this particular way of handling characters, was unaware lemmy did it tho, cheers!

        Can’t decide if I should change my post. I suppose leaving it is armless.
