Israel,
Those back-slashes mean "continue on the next line" ... so that you can see
each option on a single line.
You can try it at a bash prompt.
Type a single back slash and it does not return but starts a new line for the
rest of your command.
On each new line you can end with another back slash until you are ready to hit
return.
Enjoy.
