1. Why do you have local __version__ variables in a bunch of your methods that
serve no purpose?
2. line 33 is not correct. When you split with os.path.splitexit, the
extension will retain its leading period character. But you are joining it back
again with a period, producing duplicate period characters. That entire method
could be simplified to:
def clean_seperator(self, name):
name, ext = os.path.splitext(name)
name = re.sub(r'[^a-zA-Z0-9]+', self.seperator, name).strip()
return ''.join([name, ext ])
You do it correctly on line 85 however.
3. It's not pythonic idiom to use list comprehensions for side-effects, as
opposed to using them for the return value. Jessie's example showed it as a
normal for loop, but in Line 46, you use it to loop over the paths and add them
to a list. What is happening is that you are generating a temporary list of
None values for each loop that gets thrown away.
Python 2.7 introduced support for set comprehensions:
mySet = {i for i in xrange(10)}
In Python 2.6, you can accomplish this by passing a generator to a set()
constructor:
mySet = set(i for i in xrange(10))
4. Line 97: Did you find a need to use a windows-specific ctypes call for
creating your hard link, as opposed to the platform independent os.link() ?
