Did something change in python buggering up my use of a "\ " sequence in a
triple quoted string?

I have yet to go through my archive on the program, but I tried to run it
today and it crashed quite spectacularly when it hit a """ .... """ line
being used as a comment at the top of a function. I changed the "\" to a
"/" and all is well now.
