Unnormalizing normalized path in Windows

[Julien]

Hi,

In Windows, when a path has been normalized with os.path.normpat h, you
get something like this:

C:/temp/my_dir/bla.txt # With forward slashes instead or backward
slashes.

Is it possible to revert that?

>>magic_functio n('C:/temp/my_dir/bla.txt')

'C:\temp\my_dir \bla.txt'

I wonder if there's a standard function to do that...

Thanks a lot!

Yes, it's called os.path.normpat h. Did you actually try it before posting?

>>print os.path.normpat h('C:/temp/my_dir/bla.txt')

C:\temp\my_dir\ bla.txt
