No problem.  About the backslashes:

If you say "\\\\" in TCL, then the parser will reduce it to the literal
string <\\>.  Then the regular expression parser will collapse that
down to a pattern which matches <\>.  {\\} is the same as "\\\\"
because backslashes aren't special to TCL inside of braces.
