Hi, I need some help detecting the escape character '\'. It doesn't show up when it's in a string. I'm trying to convert '/\' into '&&' and '\/' into '||'. Help is much appreciated. Thanks.

Most of them comes in the form of arguments.
For example, 'a\/b(c/\a)'.
It's like doing 'a||b(c&&a)' in Javascript.

Thanks a lot. Why didn't I think of that earlier.
