  New Revision: 60326

  Log:
    * doc/regexp.rdoc: In regexp doc, two backslashes match one literally
    
    In the "Metacharacters and Escapes" section of regexp.rdoc, it said that
    to match a backslash literally, it must be backslash-escaped, but the
    rendered HTML showed three backslashes (\\\). There should only be two
    backslashes (\\).

 Patterns behave like double-quoted strings so can contain the same
 backslash escapes.
