Hi have a look at the code below. rhide gives
 the error: "unknown escape sequence: `\' followed by char code 0 * 20"
this code compiles ok in Borland tclite.
It looks like the end of the line backslash may be the problem but what
could I use to continue the next line if not \ ?

#include<stdio.h>

void main(void)
{
 int a,b,c,d,e;
printf("\Numbers:          %i\n         %i\n         %i\n         %i\n\
  %i",a,b,c,d,e);
}
