append special chars with "\"

[Christos TZOTZIOY Georgiou]

On Tue, 30 Sep 2003 13:33:31 +0200, rumours say that Gerrit Holl
<gerrit at nl.linux.org> might have written:

>for c in chr:
> str = str.replace(c, r"\c")

Perhaps you meant:

for c in chr:
   str = str.replace(c, r"\%s" % c)

otherwise all characters in chr would change into a literal
'backslash-c'...
