When referring to a file that does not yet exist, the "\nnn" (nnn being
digits) notation is ambiguous. Does it mean, literally, (in this case)
"\123", or is it a backslash-escape, which (in this case) evaluates to the
character '{'?
The manual lists numerous ways to handle such situations. In this case,
the simplest is to use the "other" slash:
log session c:/123
Others include:
log session c:\\123
or:
set command quoting off
log session c:\123
set command quoting on
etc.
