OS-independent wrapper for shlex and mslex, meant to be temporary until original repo updates PR
Project description
oslex
oslex
is an OS-independent wrapper for shlex
and mslex
.
Its main purpose is to provide functions similar in functionality to shlex.quote()
, shlex.split()
and shlex.join()
on both Windows and POSIX-compatible platforms.
This goal is achieved by simply forwarding the calls to either shlex
(from the standard library) on POSIX-compatible systems, or the excellent mslex
library (written by Lawrence D'Anna / @smoofra) on Windows.
In other words, oslex
is to shlex
/mslex
what os-path
is to posixpath
/ntpath
.
Licensing
This library itself is licensed under the MIT license.
oslex
uses the mslex
library, which is distributed under the Apache 2.0 license.
