You still haven't gotten rid of those illegal colons in the filename.
They're not legal in Windows, as has been pointed out a couple of times
in this thread.
Ummm.. Colons are of course legal in Windows filenames as designating
the Alternate Data Streams:
<code>
with open ("c:/temp/test.txt", "w") as f:
f.write ("base text")
with open ("c:/temp/test.txt:blah", "w") as f:
f.write ("ADS text")
print open ("c:/temp/test.txt:blah").read ()
</code>
On the other hand, though, you can't have more than one
of them:
<code>
with open ("c:/temp/test.txt:blah:blah2", "w") as f:
f.write ("ADS text2")
</code>
should raise an error.
