* | SF patch #461781 by Chris Lawrence: os.path.realpath - Resolve symlinks: | Guido van Rossum | 2001-09-17 | 1 | -0/+7 |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Once upon a time, I put together a little function that tries to find the canonical filename for a given pathname on POSIX. I've finally gotten around to turning it into a proper patch with documentation. On non-POSIX, I made it an alias for 'abspath', as that's the behavior on POSIX when no symlinks are encountered in the path. Example: >>> os.path.realpath('/usr/bin/X11/X') '/usr/X11R6/bin/X' | ||||
* | Add a version annotation for splitdrive(); old, but as long as I managed | Fred Drake | 2001-05-25 | 1 | -0/+1 |
| | | | | to end up with the information, it is better recorded than lost. | ||||
* | Explained that os.path.basename() may return something different from the | Fred Drake | 2000-10-26 | 1 | -1/+5 |
| | | | | | | basename program, as suggested by Gregor Hoffleit <gregor@hoffleit.de>. This closes bug #119485. | ||||
* | update commonprefix doc to make sure user is aware it works | Skip Montanaro | 2000-08-23 | 1 | -2/+4 |
| | | | | | character-by-character and that that behavior may result in it returning prefixes that are not valid paths | ||||
* | Merged changes from the 1.5.2p2 release. | Fred Drake | 2000-04-03 | 1 | -2/+2 |
| | | | | (Very rough.) | ||||

* | Added availability notes for samefile(), sameopenfile(), samestat() | Fred Drake | 1999-02-15 | 1 | -0/+3 |

* | Document splitdrive(). | Fred Drake | 1999-02-03 | 1 | -2/+10 |
| | | | | | | For all split*(), these split path *into* pairs, not split path *in* pairs. "Into" can be used for transformations, "in" is for containment. | ||||
* | Change this to be os.path. | Fred Drake | 1999-02-02 | 1 | -66/+67 |
| | | | | | Use consistent parameter naming with the os documentation (paths always named "path" or "path1", "path2"...). | ||||
* | Make the text generic, and call it os.path instead of posixpath. | Fred Drake | 1999-02-01 | 1 | -27/+24 |

case. Two modules (SocketServer, BaseHTTPServer) still don't match; those names are just too long! |
