rpl.1 patch to add backslash escapes to option -e examples

Description
missing escapes in manpage section covering option -e

Reproduce
$ man rpl
/  -e
# observe missing characters in examples, eg: what should 
# display as '\t' instead displays as ''. Solution is to
# alter rpl.1 single '\' to '\\', as in '\t' to '\\t'
# as man toolchain (groff,troff,etc) strip/interpret 
# (single backslash, following character) as embed 
# commands
