Per 1003.2, the (builtin) read utility shall treat the backslash as an

escape character (including line continuation), unless the `-r' option
is specified:
* adopt to this behaviour, add the `-r' option to disable it;
* remove the `-e' option, which was previously necessary to get this behaviour.

The -e option causes any backslashes in the input to
be treated specially. If a backslash is followed by
a newline, the backslash and the newline will be
deleted. If a backslash is followed by any other
character, the backslash will be deleted and the following
character will be treated as though it were
not in IFS, even if it is.
By default, unless the -r option is specified, the backslash
