    A path in YCP is a sequence of path elements separated by dots that can be used to select data from complex data structures like the SCR-tree. Path elements can contain any characters except a period and if they contain anything other than alphanumeric, underscore, hyphen characters they must be enclosed in double quotes. The root path is denoted by a single dot. Backslash characters in paths can be used to represent special characters like newlines, tabs, carriage returns, and Unicode characters.

    2.10. Data Type path


    A path is something special to Y C Pand similar to paths in TCL. It is a sequence of path elements separated by dots. A path element can contain any characters except \ x 0 0 . If it contains something else than a z A Z 0 9 _ -it must be enclosed in double quotes. The root path, i.e. the root of the tree is denoted by a single dot. Paths can be used for multiple purposes. One of their main tasks is the selection of data from complex data structures like the SCR-tree (see Chapter 2, SCR Tree). The backslash in paths can be used to mark a special characters:
