New submission from tempest <[email protected]>:
the Path parser from pathlib seems to give incorrect paths if a folder
(subdirectory) name includes a period. (This issue does not manifest with Unix
paths.)
Please see a demonstration below: "Out[2]" is not the same as "Out[3]" and
"Out[4]"; the "\" separator following the folder name with the period is not
converted to the forward slash ("/") in the WindowsPath() when the full path is
given as a Windows path string. This issue manifests with pathlib.WindowsPath()
as well. This is Python 3.7.4 from the Anaconda distribution.

Out[4]: WindowsPath('C:/Temp/MyProj.wc/test.eps')
