Replacing \ by \\ in variables

[Rodrigo de Salvo Braz]

Hi,

How can I replace \ by \\ in variables values?

For example,

var= \value

target:
        echo $(variable)
        echo $(subst \\,\\\\,$(variable))

gives me

echo \value
\value
echo \value
\value

But I would like to see

echo \value
\value
echo \\value
\\value

Thanks!

Rodrigo
