an absolute path is one that starts with the pathname separator.
The Python Library Reference does not use the term
"pathname separator". It uses "directory separator"
(os.sep) and "filename separator" ('/' on Unix).
On Windows:
|>>> import pathlib
|>>> import os
|>>> pathlib.PureWindowsPath('\\').is_absolute()
|False
|>>> pathlib.PureWindowsPath(os.sep).is_absolute()
|False
|>>> pathlib.PureWindowsPath('/').is_absolute()
|False
Thanks, that seems to suggest that there is an issue and that I should
hence submit this as an issue.
It is indeed most curious as to why this obviously absolute path is not
recognised as such :-)
