> What exactly do you do with a path argument? Because they mention "convert[ing] the string to a path", I would expect an output of `pathlib.Path`, optionally checked for existence / non-existence and / or kind (file, directory, symlink, ...). Obviously it is rather easy to bring your own, but OP's expectation is that paths input is common enough (especially in smaller standalone scripts I would expect) that having a helper in a standard library would be... helpful. ---------- nosy: +xmorel _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue42572> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
