Summary: ntpath normpath

Initial Comment:
on windows

print os.path.normpath("c:\blah\\blah.exe")
>>> c:\blah\blah.exe # correct syntax

print os.path.normpath("c:\\blah\\blah.exe")
>>> c:\\blah\blah.exe # wrong syntax

this trouble gets an os error with the rename command
(OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory)

an solution:
path.replace("\\","\")
