What exactly is the problem that you're seeing? Cygwin accepts c:/some/where/file.xt, c:\\some\\where\\file.txt, 'c:\some\where\file.txt', /cygdrive/c/some/where/file.txt, and so on.

Thanks. Now, how do you get ActiveState Python to work with the cygwin paths? -T From: Reedick, Andrew [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, January 08, 2008 12:30 PM To: Tennis Smith; python-win32@python.org Subject: RE: [python-win32] ActiveState Python + Cygwin Query Check the environment variables: OS=Windows_NT OSTYPE=cygwin From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tennis Smith Sent: Tuesday, January 08, 2008 1:08 PM To: python-win32@python.org Subject: [python-win32] ActiveState Python + Cygwin Query Hi, I have 2 questions concerning this combination. 1) Since ActiveState uses win32 path names and cygwin uses linux path names, there are lots of occasions when files can't be found. There are multiple ways (I understand) that this can be reconciled, but what is considered the most workable? (And no, getting rid of ActiveState or cygwin isn't possible, so that option is out ;-) ) 2) What's the best pythonic way to detect that the environment is cygwin? Is there some way to do it via "os" methods?
