An OSX code sketch is available here (summary: call FSPathMakeRef to get an FSRef from a path string, then FSRefMakePath to make it back into a path, which will then have the correct case). And note that it only works if the file actually exists.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/370186/how-do-i-find-the-correct-case-of-a-filename It would indeed be useful to have that be available in Python.
There is a much simpler way:
from Carbon import File File.FSRef('/tmp/foo').aspathname() '/private/tmp/Foo'
Note that this is much slower compared to os.path.exists. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/attachments/20101003/9c2faae1/attachment.html>
