4th solution:
define an environment variable in your startup script. just type a line like this:
set BSL=\
you can now call this environment variable by typing %BSL% in any pd-message, where internally it will be replaced by good old . i had some fairly good szccess with that method when it came to dynamically defining paths with pd messages

i think there are tree solutions:
- recompile pd and define GG_ESCAPE_HACK (not portable)
- use python/ruby instead of pd for handling control data (not pd)
- wait for 10 or 20 years (takes time)
