Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment: As for the "C:" behaviour, I think it is normal: you are not specifying the path itself, only the drive letter, so it uses the current path in the specified drive (which /is/ cwd if you are already running from C:, but may be something else if running from another drive).
As for '' and b'', I think that ambiguity is bad and these values should be prohibited by Python (ValueError comes to mind). ---------- nosy: +loewis, pitrou priority: -> high stage: -> test needed versions: -Python 2.4, Python 2.5, Python 2.6, Python 3.0 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5913> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
