I can't believe I am having to stoop to asking such a stupid question! I want a string that I am sending out to launch a process on windows. The string has to look like this:
myapp --actx="\\.\DISPLAY3" I cannot figure out how to get this into a string variable in ruby! > display = "\\.\DISPLAY3" => "\\.DISPLAY3" >> display.inspect => "\"\\\\.DISPLAY3\"" >> display = "\\.\\DISPLAY3" => "\\.\\DISPLAY3" >> display.inspect => "\"\\\\.\\\\DISPLAY3\"" How can I get a single slash into a string? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
