I think you're talking about os.path.abspath().

It's not in 1.5, but was new in 1.5.2; the current documentation says:
(http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-os.path.html)

abspath(path)
   Return a normalized absolutized version of the pathname 'path'. On most
   platforms, this is equivalent to 
   os.path.normpath(os.path.join(os.getcwd(), path))
   New in version 1.5.2.

That line (basically adds the current directory and the path together and
normalizes it) should work.
