Tim,
One of your scripts still does not work on my system:
==> If you want to walk the tree of directories looking at
permissions, then:
<code>
import os, sys
from winsys import fs
root = fs.file (sys.executable).path
for dirpath, _, _ in root.walk ():
print (dirpath, "=>", dirpath.security ())
</code>
However, I get the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:/Local/test4.py", line 5, in <module>
root = fs.file (r'W:\FRIB\ELPR\$DATA\DPT-FINANZAS').path
File "C:\Program Files\Python31\lib\site-packages\winsys\fs.py",
line 1775, in file
raise x_fs (None, "file", "%s exists but is a directory" %
filepath)
winsys.fs.x_fs: (None, 'file', 'W:\\FRIB\\ELPR\\$DATA\\DPT-FINANZAS
exists but is a directory')
That is, I am interested in looking for directories, but the problem
is that the path is a directory.
I'm sure there must be some way to get around this problem.
Thank you
Vicente Soler
