Escaping "\v" as a vertical tabulation where it shouldn't

[theo-frontier-sidel]

Here's the steps to reproduce:

1. In a .env file, write:

VAR1 = "abs\path\vasdf"

2. In a python module, write:

import dotenv

dotenv_path = r"path\to\.env"
print(dotenv.dotenv_values(dotenv_path))

You'll get OrderedDict([('VAR1', 'abs\x0basdf\\path')]), where it should be OrderedDict([('VAR1', 'abs\\vasdf\\path')]).

I searched for the "x0b" unicode and it's a vertical tab, that can be obtained with "\x0b" or "\v" in python.

I'm using windows 11 and the last version of python-dotenv (1.1.0)

I figured out that it's the normal behaviour, since characters can be escaped in the .env file. I should have wrote : VAR1 = "abs\\path\\vasdf" to escape the backward slashes.
