1.1     ! root        1: #print
        !             2: As you've probably noticed, the backslash character "\"
        !             3: is rather special to the editor (and to other programs
        !             4: as well).  So what do you do when you have to somehow
        !             5: get a backslash into some text, or to edit it in
        !             6: or out?
        !             7: 
        !             8: Getting it in in the first place is quite easy: when
        !             9: you are appending with "a" (or inserting with "i", or
        !            10: changing with "c", or reading with "r"), there's
        !            11: nothing special about "\" at all.  To verify this,

        !            13: 
        !            14: Two backslashes \\ do not equal one forward slash.
        !            15: 
        !            16: to the file "junk", re-write it, then type "ready".
        !            17: #create Ref
        !            18: This is a file with a silly line in it.
