Subject: How to concatenate a backslash to a string
Date: 27 Nov 2006 08:37:52 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1164645471.961583.177410@j44g2000cwa.googlegroups.com> (raw)
Hello group.
When in *scratch* I try
(concat "\\" "%")
I get "\\%"
But what I really want is to get "\%". (I am trying to TeXify some
text and convert %->\%, $->\$, etc).
If I try (concat "\" "%") I get a syntax error because the \ is
escaping the ".
Many thanks,
Mirko
