    You need to do it like this - why? Have no idea 😊

    This is a bug that was fixed very recently after the post. But also, the use of the "\" character is the escape character, this will basically tell PAD take the very next character literally and don't try to resolve it if it's a special character. You can also use the %"/"% notation to achieve the same thing. Anything inside the quotes would be taken literally.
