In that case, I'd expect it to be 'path.fromcwd()' or 'path.cwd()'; i.e. a
constructor classmethod by analogy with 'dict.fromkeys()' or

Hello,
I was asking about a problem I was having over on the C++-python list,
and they suggested I report it here as a possible Python problem.
I was getting bus errors with a C module I was linking to, so factored
it down too a very small example that reproduced the problem. Here it
is:

wrong, but I don't believe that such a design coul

We're getting enough discussion about various aspects of Jason's path module
that perhaps a PEP is warranted. All this discussion on python-dev is just
going to get lost.

That's the infrastructure I meant. I was just being sloppy with my

Note sure what you mean "CVS HEAD", you mean the latest python from
cvs? 2.4? I'm still using the Apple python, which is straight 2.3.
