New submission from Stuart Axon <stu.a...@gmail.com>: os.environ doesn't escape spaces, but does backslashes and others
In the windows python interpreter I echo'd the variable 'ProgramFiles', then in the commandprompt. >>> from os import environ >>> environ['ProgramFiles'] 'C:\\Program Files' >>> ^Z [C:\]echo %ProgramFiles% C:\Program Files This 'half' escapping seems odd, and is annoying when building file paths for instance, probably the space should also be escaped. ---------- components: None messages: 80765 nosy: stuaxo severity: normal status: open title: Environ doesn't escape spaces properly type: behavior versions: Python 2.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5098> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
