The example of the path-module is instructive because it actually represents path objects not just a bunch of functions in isolation that manipulate strings that can be interpreted as paths. I started to read in the lib.py documentation of pypy and again I found the reference to the path-module. Different people seem to share similar ideas and claim about inconveniencies. I use the path-module by myself for a year. This indicates that there is something wrong or missing in the std-library. Regards, Kay -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
