What about changing the semantics of splitext and creating a new function (available on all platforms) that does what the Windows version currently does? For people who want the one semantic on all platforms, they can pick their semantic explicitly. Alternatively, offer a flag argument in splitext to differentiate between the two cases. - Josiah _______________________________________________ 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
