programme arguments in bench

[jacques silberstein]

The written 2 arguments:

-i '([A-Z]:\\)+[A-Z]+'  path_test.txt

In debugging mode:

in class ARGUMENT_32 the second item in argument_array content : ([A-Z]:\)+[A-Z]+

So I should replace the second argument by : '([A-Z]:\\\)+[A-Z]+'

With 3 \

If I start from the terminal, that mistake does happen.

Hi!

A normal UNIX shell will pass the backslashes literally. If one of them gets lost inside the program, it's a problem of the program. Trying to fix the issue from the command line is wrong.

Dear Jacques:

In Eiffel, backslashes are special characters, just like new line characters, for example.

You may have a look at https://www.eiffel.org/doc/eiffel/Eiffel_programming_language_syntax#Special_characters
