Fwd: how to find the drive in python/cygwin?

[Ivan Van Laningham]

Hi All--
Use win32api to find drives:

====cut here====
#!/usr/bin/python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

import os
import os.path
import win32api
import sys


def findAllDrives():
    Drives=[]
    print "Searching for drives..."
    drives=win32api.GetLogicalDriveStrings().split(":")
    for i in drives:
        dr=i[-1].lower()
        if dr.isalpha():
            dr+=":\\"
            inf=None
            try:
                inf=win32api.GetVolumeInformation(dr)
            except:
                pass # Removable drive, not ready
		     # You'll still get the drive letter, but inf will be None
            Drives.append([dr,inf])
    return Drives

if __name__=="__main__":
    drives=findAllDrives()
    for i in drives:
        print i[0],i[1]
