Deciphering Text

[Freakboy]

try this one

text.gsub!(/\\[Ii]\/)
or
text.gsub!(/\\[Ii]/)

@text.gsub!(/\\\[[Ii]\]/)

The [ is a special character, you need to escape it.

 

[Roman Candle]

\ escapes the next character in the pattern: /[Ii]/ means matach I or i.
/ \[I\] / means match "" as instead of having a particular effect, the [ metacharacter is treated as a normal [ from a string.
In \\, the first slash escapes the second slash
So / \\ \[ [Ii] \] / matches \ or \
