So, we think something is working and send of a bug fix to our client :)
I'm not sure I understand this at all and wonder if there is bug?
>>> a="c:\\Program\x20Files\\test"
>>> a
'c:\\Program Files\\test'
so far, so good.
>>> a.decode("string-escape")
'c:\\Program Files\test'
Umm, not so good? The \\ before the P is okay, but the \\t is change to \t
and
>>> print a.decode("string-escape")
c:\Program Files est
Now, decode() converted the \\t to a \t and print expanded the \t to a tab.
I would have thought that the \\t would have the same result as the \\P ???
Obviously my brain is missing something (hopefully obvious).
