replay history on windows broken

[Anders Markvardsen]

To reproduce on windows do

1. Put some data in a folder with a name like 'nnn'. E.g. the CNCS_7860_event.nxs data

2. Get history and copy to clipboard which when passed gives:

Load(Filename='C:\nnn\CNCS_7860_event.nxs', OutputWorkspace='CNCS_7860_event', LoaderName='LoadEventNexus', LoaderVersion=1)

which will not run on window. it is missing the 'r'. Hence it should have been:

Load(Filename=r'C:\nnn\CNCS_7860_event.nxs', OutputWorkspace='CNCS_7860_event', LoaderName='LoadEventNexus', LoaderVersion=1)

To Test

1. use Windows!
2. Load a file (the path will include a backslash). If you want to be really cruel load a file for a directory starting with a lower case n.
3. Extract the histoy from the workspace
4. run it (successfully) - also any text properties containing \ should be prefixed with r
5. Start RecordPythonScript
6. Load a file
7. Cancel RecordPythonScript (this is when the file is written)
8. Check the file, any \ strings should be prefixed with r and run successfully.
