Subject: Fix bug #9235: LyX 2.2's tex2lyx fails in general on Windows
X-Git-Tag: 2.2.0alpha1~1498
X-Git-Url: https://git.lyx.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=417c233d07cd5ad2e9b956e4cf459d4b2aaa1b7b;p=features.git

Fix bug #9235: LyX 2.2's tex2lyx fails in general on Windows

The reason being the backslashes in the path. Note that escaping
does not work here because the path is being interpreted multiple
times (how many times I don't know) and that would be fragile.
For this same reason, the change is not limited to Windows.
