[SOLVED] String problem with textdraw - iPLEOMAX - 29.07.2011

Ok guys, I created a new textdraw, here:

pawn Код:

TDAF[3] = TextDrawCreate(471.000000, 241.000000, "\");

but due to the character "\" i get these errors:

Код:

C:\***\gamemodes\***.pwn(895) : error 037: invalid string (possibly non-terminated string)
C:\***\gamemodes\***.pwn(895) : warning 215: expression has no effect
C:\***\gamemodes\***.pwn(895) : error 001: expected token: ";", but found ")"
C:\***\gamemodes\***.pwn(895) : error 029: invalid expression, assumed zero
C:\***\gamemodes\***.pwn(895) : fatal error 107: too many error messages on one line

Ahem, you could have atleast read the problem correctly... :/

If i use this character: "\", the code will 'try' to continue the string in the next line. But I don't want this to happen.
I want the textdraw string to be \

Using double backslash (\\) will solve this problem. I don't know why you would want a textdraw showing only "\" though.
