The "." (rather "") in cPy is a neat trick. It's added only in
"interactive" (console, "-c") cases and allows you to change the CWD
to the dir you want and have your custom modules picked up as local
wherever dir you change to from within the console. Do that all the
time when deving. Setting fully-resolved path to CWD feels limiting in
that context.
You mean switching using os.chdir, I presume? That works under ipy
using '.' (which makes sense). Is there something special about how
CPython uses '' instead of '.' that ipy should by emulating?
Interesting, the empty string is indeed in sys.path from the interactive
interpreter (I thought it would be '.') yet:
>>> import os
>>> os.listdir('')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: ''
All the best,
