Name
AllowBackslash -- control backslash behaviour in DOS paths (V11.0)
Synopsis
AllowBackslash(enable)
Library
dos

Function
By default, Hollywood will treat all backslashes in file and directory names as slashes on non-Windows systems. This, however, makes it impossible to open files (or directories) that have a backslash character in their name, which is acceptable on non-Windows systems, even though it's uncommon.

So if you need to deal with DOS objects that contain backslashes, pass True to this function and Hollywood won't do any automatic mapping of backslashes to slashes but it will just keep them.

Inputs
enable
True to tell Hollywood not to map backslashes to slashes
