os.path.join('my', 'favorite', 'dir') than "\\".join(['my', 'favorite', 'dir']) because the latter will bonk on linux. The former is platform independent. This hits at the same issue as using os.sep: os.sep.join(['my', 'favorite', 'dir']) But os.path has takes care of many of these issues in one module.
