In NetHack, the backslash (\) serves the following purposes:
- Press \ to view your current knowledge about identified items.
- In a menu, pressing \ deselects all items on the current page.
- A French-Canadian keyboard layout will prevent the backslash command from working, due to requiring a tricky manipulation that is not processed properly in most Windows terminals - you may need to change your keyboard layout to a US layout and restart NetHack, or else play the game via a Linux tty (which handles the French-Canadian layout correctly) or a graphical port.
