but i always thought that pd would have no problems with backslashes in 
filenames (on windows). the only problem would be to type backslashes 
(which is prohibited), but since GriPD does this for you there shouldn't 
be a problem.

you could try the joys of zexy and use [s2l] with a delimiter of "\" (to 
convert the filename into a list of path-elements) and then use [l2s] 
with a delimter "/" (to convert the list of path-elements into a 
filename). a somewhat unhandy way to replace characters. i am sure there 
are simpler solutions for this but i know none
