No need to backtrack into SCRIPT_NAME. I meant the home page of this
Quixote application, not the server's document root.
path = request.get_environ('PATH_INFO', '')
if not path:
return quixote.redirect('/')
That way if I go to http://example.com/app it'll redirect to
http://example.com/app/ . Same for http://example.com ->
http://example.com/ . The problem isn't a stupid server, it's users
typing URLs without a trailing slash.
This is not related to moving stuff from SCRIPT_NAME to PATH_INFO if
PATH_INFO wasn't set correctly. I assume that's already been done by this
point.
