Westley, I was responding to msg162168 and didn't see msg162169 yet. 

PEP11 mentions MacOS 9 support was removed in 2.4. Is ":" still invalid in OSX?

I'll need to think about the approach of using an "INVALID_CHARS" list. It looks like it might be a better way to do this. However, here are some issues with the patch.

I received this error:

    AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'relpace'

I fixed this minor mistype, but noticed that file auto-completion no longer works for the following:

>>> "/

Pressing tab after the forward slash should show a drop-down with the root filesystem. Changing INVALID_CHARS to be:

   if os.name == 'posix':
       INVALID_CHARS = '\0'

allows the root filesystem to show.
