You have to use double backslash eg. \\t -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]
I have a C programme which takes parameters like "\t" or "\b" etc.. . I have to pass these params from the shell prompt. However when it give \t as a parameter, only the t reaches my program. if i pass \t\x\r , txr is passed to my programme. Is there some way i can get the actual parameter that is passed ? (ie with the escpae characters ) Thanks, saurabh -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
