If you were using os.path.join(), as you should be, you wouldn't ever have to write a trailing backslash in a path in the first place. Or any backslashes at all, for that matter.
Sure, but why would I waste my time with that at the interactive prompt? I'm trying to get something done quickly. I can copy-paste from just about anywhere something like this:: C:\Documents and Settings\...\My Documents\projects\causals\treebank-verb-conj-801-1100.xml If I have to use os.path.join, it'll take me 10 times as long to input it.
