This actually works even better; the double slashes eliminate the 'unending
string' behavior that the single slashes produce. Using this particular syntax
never occurred to me, though; the docs don't mention it.
But your suggestion gave me an idea: I'm guessing that the most 'important'
slash is the final one, preceding the last double-quote. My goofy intuition,
anyway, based on something I read in the docs. So I tried it a third way--
single slashes *except* at the end-- and it works as well as using all double
slashes:
Output_File_Name="c:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My
Documents\POV-Ray\v3.6\tests\\"
No error message, and no 'unending strings.' Great!
Many thanks, to you and to Thomas. Mystery solved!
