       Tcl_Backslash(src, countPtr)

ARGUMENTS

       char   *src        (in)      Pointer  to a string starting

DESCRIPTION

       This is a utility procedure used by  several  of  the  Tcl
       commands.   It parses a backslash sequence and returns the
       single character corresponding to the sequence.  Tcl_Back­
       slash  modifies *countPtr to contain the number of charac­
       ters in the backslash sequence.

       See the Tcl manual entry  for  information  on  the  valid
       backslash  sequences.   All  of the sequences described in
       the Tcl manual entry are supported by Tcl_Backslash.
