HI Guido, I'm not a windows user or developer, but I concur. When I was reading this post I kept thinking to myself that Windows is one of the only Operating Systems with a File system that reuiqres this [A-Z]:\ syntax. All sensible POSIX systems I know and File Systems all mount various other media on "mount points". *shrug* --James -- -- James Mills -- -- "Problems are solved by method" _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
