Thanks... can you give me an example of what that would look like?
I don't think I want to pass a backslash to Lua, so I'm not sure how to
apply what you're saying. Or are you using "Lua" here in the sense of
LuaTeX?
A backslash appears in the output of os.resultof"whoami"; do I need to
perform some processing on that output in order to escape backslashes?
