I appreciate your helpfulness. It's only a small thing, but it speaks to your character that you have found it necessary to save this, to streamline being helpful.

Bouncing onto a different topic, I first learned of using backslash as an escape character in the context of the shrug ( ¯\_ (ツ)/¯ ) kaomoji. If you type it as it's shown there, its left arm gets lost, like this ¯_ (ツ)

I find it funny that if I wanted this comment to show what I typed to get that first correct one to show properly, I'd need to do ¯\\_ (ツ)_/¯ . That has four backslashes. It can get very silly.
