Is there any way that you can check if a file exists in the same folder as the program without using:

os.path.isfile or os.path.exists

You can still use os.path without 'changing paths all the time', as you outlined in your comment.

import os def is_file_in_app_path(filename): app_path = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__)) file_path = os.path.join(app_path, filename) return os.path.exists(file_path)

Fixed as per @tdelaney's comment.

os.path.join is a platform independent version of '/'.join(...)

import os def openFile(filename): try: fd = os.open(filename, os.O_CREAT | os.O_EXCL | os.O_WRONLY) except: print "Nothing here" return None fobj = os.fdopen(fd, "w") return fobj
