special characters [i.e. " \n", \r"]

[Lopekal]

I wondered if anyone knows of somewhere that lists all the various characters that do things like 'newline' [\n] or 'carriage return' [\r].

I wonder specifically if there was ones for tab ->| etc.

thanks.

a tab is \t...

If you're looking for something closer to PHP than regex, then the PHP manual:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php

Look for "Escaped characters".
