Does pathlib work correctly for paths in unknown (and mixed) encodings? Personally, I'm happy to consider filenames in an arbir=tray encoding "broken", but I don't write the kind of system tools where you can't do that. But anyway, it's a bi tof red herring -- as others' posted -- if the "byte slingers" would find it useful, then that's all we need to know. -CHB -- Christopher Barker, PhD Python Language Consulting - Teaching - Scientific Software Development - Desktop GUI and Web Development - wxPython, numpy, scipy, Cython
