You could also quote the backslashs from within the shell using 'qbs':
$ function qbs() { if [ $# -gt 0 ] ; then l=$1; else read -r l; fi;
echo "$l" | sed -e 's/\\/\\\\/g'; }
$ echo foo.bar | sed -e 's/\..*//'
foo
# This command works. I want to quote the backslahs to copy it in emacs.
# So I copy and paste it into 'qbs'
$ qbs
echo foo.bar | sed -e 's/\..*//' # <- This is what I copied/pasted
echo foo.bar | sed -e 's/\\..*//' # <- This is what 'qbs' produces
# or pass it as argument to qbs:
$ qbs "echo foo.bar | sed -e 's/\..*//'"
echo foo.bar | sed -e 's/\\..*//'
