[Python-Dev] FileSystemError or FilesystemError? (original) (raw)

When reviewing the PEP 3151 implementation (*), Ezio commented that "FileSystemError" looks a bit strange and that "FilesystemError" would be a better spelling. What is your opinion?

I don't think it really matters since both "file system" and "filesystem" appear to be in common usage.

I would say +1 to "FileSystemError" -- i.e. take file system as two words.

Cheers Ross
