Hello!
I found strange os.path.join() behavior on Windows.
It works fine in common case.
>>> os.path.join("C", "filename")
'C\\filename'
But if first argument is "C:" there are no backslashes added at all!
>>> os.path.join("C:", "filename")
'C:filename'
But I expect two inserted backslashes...
>>> sys.version
'3.4.1 |Anaconda 2.1.0 (64-bit)| (default, Sep 24 2014, 18:32:42) [MSC v.1600 64 bit (AMD64)]'
Is there a bug?
Thanks!

Sorry, but this is operating as designed and documented. See the docs here: https://docs.python.org/3.4/library/os.path.html#os.path.join "On Windows ... since there is a current directory for each drive, os.path.join("c:", "foo") represents a path relative to the current directory on drive C: (c:foo), not c:\foo. So I think this issue should be closed as not a bug. |

I agree this isn't a bug, due to per-drive current directories on Windows. |

Sorry for disturbing. I'll read docs more careful next time. |
