I notice that getDirectoryContents appears to return its results in
alphabetical order. Is this behaviour actually guaranteed?
Related: Is there a way to get rid of "." and ".." in the results?
(Obviously this causes directory recusion to malfunction.) I can of
course manually filter them out, but it's annoying.
Finally, why do
doesDirectoryExist "C:"
doesDirectoryExist "C:\"
both yield False? (This frequently trips up programs that try to check
that a destination folder exists.)
