Hi,
I'm completing the Python lessons on YouTube that Google posted. At the
end of section 2 of day 2, there is a task to identify files then put them
in a zip file in any directory. The code is from the 'solution' folder, so
it's not something I wrote. I suspect I have a problem with PATHS or
environment variables. I'm new to programming in something as advanced as
Python, but I do okay with VBA - so I just feel like there's a setting up
issue somewhere. I'm on Windows 7, tried running this in Idle and from the
command line.
The commands module used by zip_to() is an unfortunate choice for a tutorial
because it is supposed to work with unix shells only.
It's also unfortunate that an issue has been outstanding here for
a while:
http://bugs.python.org/issue10197
It's one of those which seems simple to fix but which spawns a
thousand discussions...
