SYNTAX ERROR

[TexasPete]

PLEASE HELP.  I HAVE DONE THE FOLLOWING.
DEF BACKSLASH:STRING

BACKSLASH="\"

I am getting a sytax error message. I do not know why . I have other defined strings that use the same format.
They work fine.
Anybody know what I am doing wrong.

Because you haven't read the users guide.  Specifically the part about string literals:

http://www.ionicwind.com/guides/emergence/language_topics_constants_and_literals.htm

To insert a backslash into the string you need to use two of them as it is an escape character, as outlined in the guide.

BACKSLASH="\\"
