Given a program 'foo' that takes a command line argument '-I includefile', I want to be able to look for 'includefile' in a path specified in an environment variable, 'FOOPATH'.
I'd like a semantic that says: "If 'includefile' contains one or more path separator characters, ignore 'FOOPATH'. If it contains no path separators, look for it in the paths specified by 'FOOPATH', beginning with the leftmost path first." Is there a standard Pythonic idiom for doing this or do I need to cook up my own.
