Re: Python open of c:\ path Problem

Wayne Watson wrote:
Python doesn't like this:

junkfile = open('c:\tmp\junkpythonfile','w')

I get
junkfile = open('c:\tmp\junkpythonfile','w')
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'c:\tmp\\junkpythonfile'

The clue, if you needed one, is there in that traceback.
Notice the *single* slash before the "t" in contrast
with the *double* slash before the "j".

In short, you need to double up your backslashes,
or use a raw string or forward slashes. There's an
FAQ somewhere but I can't be bothered to look for
it right now.
