I have a question on use of the tilde symbol (~) to access the current
user's home directory.
If you are in a bash shell, you can "cd ~" and be in the default
user's home directory.
I want my python app to be able to switch to the user's directory.
But I can't use os.chdir('~') since Python doesn't understand the
tilde. Nor can I do this:
file = os.path.join('~', filename)
What options do I have?
thanks
S
