Why, yes. I wasn't aware that that handled escaping. Perfect!

Thanks,

Apologies if I'm totally wrong on what you are trying to achieve, but ist „Using Selection for Find“ from the Search menu (cmd+E by default) what you are looking for? It puts your string into the Find section of the - well - Find dialog and translates all special characters (e.g. \t gets \\t). I use the key combo cmd+E and cmd+F all the time. You can even copy it from the Find dialog if you need the string someplace else.
