s. Add .symlinks and .walksymlinks
methods.
This eliminates an 'if' for programs that want to treat symlinks
specially.
- I have a .move method that combines .rename, .renames, and .move; and
a .copy
method that combines .copy, .copy2, and .copytree .
I'd appreciate a Cc on replies if your newsreader allows it.

. I disagree. But it shows why a "literal"
superclass in the stdlib and higher-level subclasses would be useful.
I don't see why a little change to avoid an unnecessary IOError is a
bad thing. The only programs it would hurt are those that really want
to know whether the thing already

appears that if a Python program uses eggs, it creates a
~/.python-eggs/ directory, so the home directory must be writeable.
This conflicts with server environments where you want to run a daemon
with minimum privileges. Second, it a

What's the best way to summarize data by week? I have a set of
timestamped records, and I want a report with one row for each week in
the time period, including zero rows if there are weeks with no

It's a little annoying that if you want to print a class's name in
some unknown object, you have to use obj.__class__.__name__ if it's an
instance, and obj.__name__ if it's a class. I sometimes wish classes
had a .__cl
