Other than using os.pardir instead of '..', and possibly adding
an "os.path.abspath()" call to the last bit (or does realpath
already do that?  It's unclear from the docs), I can't see
anything fundamental I'd do differently... except package these
functions up as nice clean subroutines, possibly in a library
package, that I could then use in code that would magically
become "elegant" (IMHO) by avoiding the repetition of all
that non-elegant stuff above...

Well... but to call it from the shared directory, I'd have to first switch to the shared directory! Which would defeat the purpose.


I wish there was a way to store this in a single file and call it from any script, but I'm unwilling to keep all my scripts in one folder to accomodate it. If only Python would let you import modules from different directories. :-/
