Probably will have to go with "abc","\","abc".

|   Why I'm unable to print the string "abc\abc" with povray (at least in this
| Solaris compile)?
|   If I try this:
|
| #debug "abc\abc"
|
| I get a beep and "abcbc" is printed. Ok, \a is some bell or something like
| that.
|   Then I thought that it has to be printed this way:
|
| #debug "abc\\abc"
|
|   Same result! A beep and "abcbc" was printed. Strange.
|   Then I tried:
|
| #debug "abc\\\abc"
|
|   Now there's no beep but it prints "abc\\abc".
|
|   It seems that I'm unable to print "abc\abc". Is this a bug?
