Suggested solution: myLine = regexprep(myLine,'(:[^\\])',':::') to convert C:\sdfds:sdfds:sdfsd to C:\sdfds:::dfds:::dfsd then doing strsplit based on :::

Where is this causing a problem?

raacampbell commented 6 years ago

I was told it was the cell counter plugin on Windows. I gave the above solution to the user. They implemented it but saw more problems downstream. I don't know what these were. They switched to Linux instead and didn't look into the solution further.

Shall we put this on hold for now?

raacampbell commented 6 years ago

Yeah, I was just reporting so it didn't get forgotten.
