Subject: [python-win32] ActiveState Python + Cygwin Query
Hi,
I have 2 questions concerning this combination.
1) Since ActiveState uses win32 path names and cygwin uses linux
path names, there are lots of occasions when files can't be found.
There are multiple ways (I understand) that this can be reconciled, but
what is considered the most workable? (And no, getting rid of
ActiveState or cygwin isn't possible, so that option is out ;-) )
2) What's the best pythonic way to detect that the environment is
cygwin? Is there some way to do it via "os" methods?
Thanks,
-T
