All of them have this construct: try: path = path.fspath() except AttributeError: pass Is that the intention, or should the exception catching be narrower? I know it's clunky to write it in Python, but AIUI it's less so in C: try: callme = path.fspath except AttributeError: pass else: path = callme()

I'm assuming the C code will do what you're suggesting. My way is just faster to write in 2 minutes of coding. :) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/attachments/20160413/c07829d5/attachment.html>
