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 'datetime.now()'. 'getcwd()' looks like it's getting a property of a path instance, and doesn't match stdlib conventions for constructors. So, +1 as long as it's called cwd() or something better (i.e. clearer and/or more consistent with stdlib constructor conventions). _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
