[New-bugs-announce] [issue24504] os.listdir() error if the last folder starts not with the capital letter

[Denis Gordeev]

New submission from Denis Gordeev:

My code is:
mypath = 'Z:\Pr Files\norma'
file_list = [ f for f in listdir(mypath) if isfile(join(mypath,f))]

Error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\uni\click zhenilo workshop\noise.py", line 13, in <module>
    file_list = [ f for f in listdir(mypath) if isfile(join(mypath,f))]
WindowsError: [Error 123] The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect: 'Z:\\Pr Files\norma/*.*'

It works all right, if the path is:
mypath = 'Z:\Pr Files\Norma'
