Subject: gensub() matched component always empty, even for the exact text of the example in the manual |

When I tried: b = gensub(/(.+) (.+)/, "\2 \1", "g", a)
instead of: b = gensub(/(.+) (.+)/, "\\2 \\1", "g", a)
I got 3 characters output: STX_SOH where _ == space
== 0x02_0x01 where _ == space
backslashes can be such a pain sometimes ...
