[Fixed]-Django paths in Windows

This probably is a manifold over duplicate question, but:

Python escaping routines. Python uses a backslash as standard escape in string representation. Which is exactly what happens here.

To give some easy (documented) examples:

Escape Sequence     Meaning 
\newline            Ignored
\\  Backslash       (\)
\'  Single quote    (')
\"  Double quote    (")

You can see the difference through an example like this:

>>> spam_eggs = '''spam
... eggs'''
>>> print spam_eggs
spam
eggs
>>> print repr(spam_eggs)
'spam\neggs'
