1 # Module 'riscospath' -- common operations on RISC OS pathnames.
3 # contributed by Andrew Clover ( andrew@oaktree.co.uk )
5 # The "os.path" name is an alias for this module on RISC OS systems;
6 # on other systems (e.g. Mac, Windows), os.path provides the same
7 # operations in a manner specific to that platform, and is an alias
8 # to another module (e.g. macpath, ntpath).
11 Instead of importing this module directly, import os and refer to this module
15 # strings representing various path-related bits and pieces
24 # Imports - make an error-generating swi object if the swi module is not
25 # available (ie. we are not running on RISC OS Python)

44 # After importing riscospath, set _allowMOSFSNames true if you want the module
45 # to understand the "-SomeFS-" notation left over from the old BBC Master MOS,
46 # as well as the standard "SomeFS:" notation. Set this to be fully backwards
47 # compatible but remember that "-SomeFS-" can also be a perfectly valid file
48 # name so care must be taken when splitting and joining paths.

53 ## Path manipulation, RISC OS stylee.
57 split filing system name (including special field) and drive specifier from rest
58 of path. This is needed by many riscospath functions.

86 Normalize the case of a pathname. This converts to lowercase as the native RISC
87 OS filesystems are case-insensitive. However, not all filesystems have to be,
88 and there's no simple way to find out what type an FS is argh.
90 return string
.lower(p
)
95 Return whether a path is absolute. Under RISC OS, a file system specifier does
96 not make a path absolute, but a drive name or number does, and so does using the
97 symbol for root, URD, library, CSD or PSD. This means it is perfectly possible
98 to have an "absolute" URL dependent on the current working directory, and
99 equally you can have a "relative" URL that's on a completely different device to
100 the current one argh.

125 Split a path in head (everything up to the last '.') and tail (the rest). FS
126 name must still be dealt with separately since special field may contain '.'.

138 dot for slash with foreign files' convention common in RISC OS is in force.

150 the path. The terminating dot of the drive name is included in the drive
