Yes that's right. In ht://Dig's configuration file, the backslash must
be the last character on the line for it to be taken as a continuation
character. This is the case with many other UNIX tools as well, so it's
a good habit to get into. Fortunately, ht://Dig doesn't get confused
by lines ending in CR/LF, instead of just a single LF, unlike many
UNIX tools.
