Too many backslashes stripped in documentation generation

[kokes]

I've noticed the generated documentation for to_csv strips backslashes in the newline character

line_terminator : string, default ‘n’

I thought it was a case of slash stripping, but I checked the code and it's double backslashed there - so the doc generation is a bit aggressive. The IO doc is fine, its code is the same - double backslashed.

Thanks for reporting. The read_csv docs seem to have the same problem (http://pandas-docs.github.io/pandas-docs-travis/generated/pandas.read_csv.html) for the sep and delim_whitespace keywords.

Probably easiest solved by making it raw strings of some of them (r"..."). Interested in trying to fix this?

I looked into this and made the changes to fix it. Just for reference, it also impacted read_table, as it was tied into the docs with read_csv.
