If python was lower-casing paths it would be even more of a problem on case-sensitive file systems like ext3. Something else is going on. Are you sure you're not passing in lower-cased paths in a config argument or environment variable somewhere?

The issue is this:

>>> os.getcwd()

'/users/jesse/gtk/10.4/source/enchant'

I don't know why the current working directory when retrieved from python is lowercase on my system, but it is.

Please remember to copy the list (use "Reply All").

sorry.

 

Weird. Is that a python you built yourself or Apple's?

Actually, it has nothing to do with python:

jesse@tsf-wpa-2-5230:~$ cat test.c

#include <stdio.h>

#include <unistd.h>

int main()

{

  char buf[1024];

  getwd (buf);

  printf ("%s\n", buf);

  return 0;

}

jesse@tsf-wpa-2-5230:~$ ./test

/users/jesse

Somehow, hfs must encode an alias, or some information to make that return lowercase. Actually, doing 'sudo mv /users /Users' fixed the "issue" and now I get uppercase /Users again. Go figure...
