Source Code for Module posixpath

  1  """Common operations on Posix pathnames. 
  2   
  3  Instead of importing this module directly, import os and refer to 
  4  this module as os.path.  The "os.path" name is an alias for this 
  5  module on Posix systems; on other systems (e.g. Mac, Windows), 
  6  os.path provides the same operations in a manner specific to that 
  7  platform, and is an alias to another module (e.g. macpath, ntpath). 
  8   
  9  Some of this can actually be useful on non-Posix systems too, e.g. 
 10  for manipulation of the pathname component of URLs.
