Hi list,
I have to add one aspect to the functionality I'm looking for:
Since I'm used to use directory names which contain underscores ('_') my
python code should read:
leo@sylhepta ~ $ python
Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Sep 15 2010, 15:52:39)
[GCC 4.4.5] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> def shorten_path(path, len):
... return '/.../' + '/'.join(path.split(
'/')[-len:]).replace('_','\_')
...
>>> shorten_path('/home/leo/leo/Test_01/abc',2)
'/.../Test\_01/abc'
>>>
TIA and Best regards
Hellmut
