Escape the backslash with another backslash.local text="/texthere\\"

Well, that's adventurous ;)/>! The slash doesn't need to be escaped, only the backslash, but it's an acceptable solution.local text = string.char(47).."texthere"..string.char(92)

"char" just returns strings, if I remember correctly. Do you, perchance, mean os.pullEvent("key") ?local text = string.char(47).."texthere"..string.char(92)
Are those numbers the same as the ones you get from os.pullEvent("char")?

If you were to wrap the result in a string.byte(), yes. If, as Dog said, you meant os.pullEvent("key"), no. The numbers returned by the key event are key codes.Are those numbers the same as the ones you get from os.pullEvent("char")?
