I have this:
subdomain = raw_input('Enter subdomain name: ')
path = r'C:\Documents and Settings\John Salerno\My Documents\My
Webs\1and1\johnjsalerno.com\' + subdomain
Obviously the single backslash at the end of 'path' will cause a
problem, and escaping it with a backslash seems to fix this problem, but
how does escaping work when I already have it as a raw string? When I
test it out and then print string, I get something like this:
C:\Documents and Settings\John Salerno\My Documents\My
Webs\1and1\johnjsalerno.com\\test
But I don't see how this is valid, since all the backslashes are single
(which is correct) except the last one. Somehow this still works when I
tried to create the new directory -- os.mkdir(path) -- but I wasn't sure
if this is the right way to go about it, or if there is some other,
better way to handle the final backslash.
