Hi,

I can't believe it... I have searched the PR database, Google, etc. for
existing solutions to this problem, but I did not find yours. I also
considered using quotes, but since you need escape-sequences to encode
quotes in your solution, too, the approach using '\ ', '\<TAB>', '\\' is
simpler and cleaner IMHO.

Simon
