Mark Mc Mahon <mtnbikingm...@gmail.com> added the comment: For Directory.make_short() the only things which are left could be considered splitting hairs.
1. Do we need to remove '"\/:' from the file name - if these characters are there then the file name is not valid in the first place. 2. These characters '+,;=[]' should really be changed to '_' if we want to match more closely how Windows makes short names. I can write a patch for the above if they should be fixed and either way I can add tests for this function. (the test I had for testing my own patch - almost completely pass - but the only failure was depending on point 2.) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7639> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
