Does it? Cool, chalk one up for UNIX ;D

Python has os.path.sep and os.path.join and so on which in theory mean you can 
be completely path seperator agnostic, but if you can use '/' internally then 
that'd probably be easier. What about drive letters? You'd also have to be 
careful you always convert to the native path encoding before talking to the 
outside world.
