Related: I've recently ran into some issues with pl.path: - new path.normpath: I believe the current implementation does not handle more than one (consecutive) ".." properly. - I also wanted to have '/' as dir separator on a windows OS (for aesthetic reasons), but that wasn't as simple as expected. Attached is a changed pl.path: - "the normalizing multiple .."- issue is fixed. - I made it so you can pick your preferred separator on windows via path.prefer_slash, which is simply ignored if not path.is_windows (path.prefer_slash is meant to be changed by the user after loading the module and basically just affects how paths are normpath'ed). - If path.is_windows: Unicode paths are considered absolute and left alone (e.g. [[\\.\COM56]]). - path.sep was removed. I believe all of those changes to be an improvement; IMHO there was not much point in setting path.sep to sth. exotic anyway (like '.') since that silently broke path.normpath and all other functions using string patterns which embedded '\' or '/'. This was not extensively tested, but I believe it doesn't break anything that worked before. All changes I made are to be considered public domain, etc... Wolfgang Pupp
