Description:
------------
Hi,

My Highlighter seem to remove backslashes in code. E.g. in c++ or PHP code I frequently use \n for newlines. This is displayed as only n.

If I view the source it shows:
<span class="hl-special"></span><span class="hl-string">n</span>

Instead of:

<span class="hl-special">\</span><span class="hl-string">n</span>

Hi Jan,

This seems to be a problem with WordPress and magic quotes maybe. I couldn't reproduce the issue using Text_Highlighter alone.

You can do this test in your WP:
<pre>\n</pre>
The slash will be stripped from the source when you preview your post.

Best regards,
Stoyan

Yes, indeed this was a Wordpress error. I am sorry for the false bug report... :(
