i’m not sure if you’re allowed to escape the / character, i feel like it’s blatantly illegal. But you could use the funny character set trolling thing instead, where you use a not forward slash instead. (not the \)
Just tried. It processes the escape first and then finds the path with it. Essentially, making it look into a directory made by the characters before the \/.
The above was when I tried:
echo"asd" > asd\/dsa
But then I tried using Dolphin (GUI File Browser) to make a file and:
❯ ls
1 2 3 4 'asd\⁄sad.txt'
❯ ls
1 2 3 4 asd⁄sad.txt
In the first one, the backslash is not the escape character, but part of the text.
I think you might even be able to get away with /s if you escape them properly in the filename.

I’m fairly confident MacOS allows it, I’ve seen people do some Utterly Cursed shit in MacOS, but idk about Linux
maybe on macos, that might be funny, it’s probably fucky over there for some other reason anyway.
Im pretty sure it’s just explicitly illegal in linux though.
