Dealing with the absolute path under Windows, Linux and Mac OS X

There are two ways of passing the absolute path of your folder/file, in order to perform a backup operation; Those ways depend totally on the user's operating system.

• Linux or Mac OS X:
  Simply use the standard absolute path.

  Example: {"path":"/Users/name/projects/myfile.bkp"}

• Windows:
  It is required to escape the slash.

   Example:   {"path":"C:\\Users\\name\\projects\\myfile.bkp"}
