How to get volume name under Win32?

[Emile van Sebille]

Dale,

It seems this came up recently with a legitimate way of getting
directly to the label using win32 extensions, so you may want
to look for that, but in the meantime, this gets you there with
a little parsing:

import os
info = os.popen(r'dir x:\missing.ext').readlines()
info[1]

or at least here on win95 info[1] holds the volume name.

HTH,
