Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Python Library Group: Python 2.5 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Koblaid (koblaid) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: glob.glob("c:\\[ ]\*) doesn't work Initial Comment: OS: Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 Python 2.5 glob.glob() doesn't work in directories named "[ ]" (with a blank in it). Another example is a directory named "A - [Aa-Am]" Example: ######################### C:\>md [] C:\>md "[ ]" C:\>copy anyfile.txt [] 1 Datei(en) kopiert. C:\>copy anyfile.txt "[ ]" 1 Datei(en) kopiert. C:\>python Python 2.5 (r25:51908, Sep 19 2006, 09:52:17) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import glob >>> glob.glob ("c:\\[]\*") ['c:\\[]\\anyfile.txt'] >>> glob.glob ("c:\\[ ]\*") [] ######################### The second glob should have resulted the same as the first glob since I copied the same file to both directories. I may be wrong because I'm new to python. But I've tested it a couple of times, and I think it have to be a bug of python or a bug of windows.
