Placeholders: Document \ as the ESC Character
So backslash, \, escapes it (as one would expect), though it is not documented (at least not in the
Placeholders help section).
So you would use: Z:\ab\c
Oh,oh, oh.Placeholders for the Date and Time
- for a placeholder, there is no way to enter the literal character that the placeholder represents
So if you want to Move files from Z:\xxx to Z:\abc, you'll end up instead with:
> Z:\ab02/11/2023 02:01:00 PM
Placeholders are case insensitive, & even if they were not, a person might want to use a capitol or
lower case in their name in particular situations.
