[cvsnt] Re: Unknown escape character '\P' ignored

[Greg Norris]

 Thank you Glen that was it.  
- I expected it was something simple.

A big thanks to all who make CVSNT and wincvs the great tools they are.
Cheers,
Greg.

Your *info scripts (in CVSROOT within your repository) aren't using the
'new' required escaping method.  You need to either replace \ with / (as
in paths c:/foo/bar/blah) or with \\ (c:\\foo\\bar\\blah).
