Excellent, works great! But one more question: do I need to import 
os.path for this? I tried it with and without it, and it worked both 
ways, so I'm a little uncertain about whether os.path is really a 
separate module, or if it is still contained within os and doesn't need 
to be imported separately (it seems like it doesn't, but it is listed 
separately in the docs).
