Whatever code is getting the path and storing it into a variable needs to escape the path. Otherwise, you'll have to replace each tab/newline/etc. with literal \t/\n/\r/etc., and that's ugly and could lead to problems (you may have special characters you want to keep). The reason your replace code didn't work is because the \t is a tab character, not a literal "\t". The replace function doesn't see "\t", but rather a tab. -- CPython 3.2.2 | Windows NT 6.1.7601.17640 | Thunderbird 7.0
