I guess the nearest Java class comparable with path is the File class.
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/io/File.html
And as I am a so called Java hacker, I highly appreciate path as a
module for my python projects and in my eyes it is the natural way to
address files/paths. At least it is more natural to me then the os,
os.path, etc. pp. bundle, that has grown over the time.
I would love to see path inside Python's stdlib.
Best regards,
Oliver
