Are you perhaps fooled by the fact that hilfe writes valid pike-strings?

Try write( replace( s, "a", "\b" ) + "\n" )

Replace doesn't seem to like . :

string s = Pike v7.6 release 13 running Hilfe v3.5 (Incremental Pike Frontend)

...

string s = "foo.bar.com"; replace(s, ".", ".");

(1) Result: "foo.bar.com"

...

replace(s, "a", ".");

(2) Result: "foo.b.r.com"

...

replace(s, "a", "\b");

(3) Result: "foo.b\br.com"

And just in case people would wonder:

...

replace(s, ".", "\.");

(4) Result: "foo\.bar\.com"
