I'm working on this now, but my knowledge of python needs refreshing. Right now I have a file of all the az,el data I've collected, and I'd like to open it with Python for XP. However, Python doesn't like this:

junkfile = open('c:\tmp\junkpythonfile','w')

I get
    junkfile = open('c:\tmp\junkpythonfile','w')
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'c:\tmp\\junkpythonfile'

This problematic segment is just a hack of a similar statement which has the same problem and a much longer path. I suspect the problem is with the back slash.


A standard windows error. note that '\t' is a tab, and I doubt you have
a directory named <tab> <m> <p>.  Get in the habit of _always_ using:
   junkfile = open(r'c:\tmp\junkpythonfile','w')
or
   junkfile = open('c:\\tmp\\junkpythonfile','w')
for file names.
