sure. all of these and post("\\"); produce the same ASCII character 92,
which is double-escaped by Pd to produce the literal r'\\' (double
backslash).

because this is C# syntax, not C (or C++).
but again: your problem is not how to enter the backslash, but to print
it (which is controlled by Pd, which will escape your backslash).
see it as a bug if you want to (although it's really just that
backslashes are *unsupported* by Pd).
if you can live with a similar glyph, try "\u29f5" or "\u29f9" (non of
which will give you a *real* backslash, but something that looks
somewhat similar)
