issue on window machine

The iterator returns entries with excluded directory separators. For example, instead of /path/to/some/dir, it returns pathtosomedir.

Hi @aryaabdi, I suspect this has something to do with the backslash being used as a path separator on Windows, but treated as an escape character by braceexpand (at least by default). I admit I didn't test this on Windows. I guess the default behavior could be improved.

In the meantime, does using braceexpand("...", escape=False) fix the problem for you?

Thank you for your reply. Yes, the problem is the backslash. I could find a workaround; I now use braceexpand on filenames and then attach the directory head to the results. Will try to see if your solution works too.
