But, where is the typo?  I played around with ess-find-rterm and I can't 
find anything wrong.  Here's what is actually displayed

c:\progra~1\RR-2.3.0^Hin\rterm.exe

(\b is replaced by ^H which is a backspace).
It looks like there are two problems.  One is double evaluations
of \\ which resolves to \ which then makes a backspace.  There was a 
double evaluation problem in ess-load-file that I fixed by replacing all \\ with / by ess-replace-regexp.  However, I've tried that and
I must not be doing it in the right place.

The other problem of the missing directory separator might be solved by 
using file-name-as-directory.  However, I haven't been able to
find the right place to fix that either.
