I don't think this would be as useful as you think, for Path objects at least. Path objects represent *a* path, and building a tree as you have proposed involves storing much more information than necessary. For instance, if I have the path /A/B/X, a tree-structured object would logically also store the siblings of X and B (subpaths of B and A). -- Brian Beck Adventurer of the First Order -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
