Not using forward slashes #53

Closed programmdesign closed 9 years ago

programmdesign commented 9 years ago

First, the "correct" example also uses backslashes. Second, the backslashes are used incorrectly, and will not compile. There are two fixes for this: Escape the backslashes: "\path\to\my\static\files" Use a raw string: r"\path\to\my\static\files"
