[chuck-users] escaped backslash in string

Hi all. I'm working on a project that requires me to send a backslash 
character via OSC.

This construct is typical of C family languages:

"\\hello"  -------> prints: \hello

but ChucK doesn't seem to let me escape a backslash. Instead I get 
[unrecognized escape sequence: '\h'].

Same when I try to use octal: "\134hello"

Setting aside the crazy fact that I have to send a backslash over OSC 
(it's for Guido music notation in InScore), does anyone know how to get 
a backslash in a ChucK string?

Thanks,
Joel
