urllib uses nturl2path under the hood. On my system it seems to return reasonable results for both two and four leading slashes: >>> nturl2path.url2pathname('////host/share/test.py') '\\\\host\\share\\test.py' >>> nturl2path.url2pathname('//host/share/test.py') '\\\\host\\share\\test.py' (note that urllib strips the `file:` prefix before calling this function). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue46654> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
