Regular Text

[jaeltong at yahoo.co.uk]

Hallo,
I am new to python.
I wrote a program to retrieve the filepath. eg. C:\Programs\Python\
and write it in a text file
It works fine until the path contains \t or \n. eg. C:\Programs\Python
\new\.
Because of the regular text format, I didn't get what I want in the
text file.

I tried to change the separator from \ to / but python only gives C:/
Programs/Python\new/.

How should I do to make sure that the program writes the correct path
in the text file?
