Where is Python storing /thisdir on Windows? -

i have script writing having unix/mac os in mind.

among other things, storing files on given folder

data_path = config.data_path  os.chdir(data_path) testfile = urllib.urlopener() try:      local_size = 0     remote_size = int(urllib.urlopen(remote_name).headers['content-length'])     if os.path.exists(data_path + temp_zip_name):         local_size = pathlib.path(data_path + temp_zip_name).stat().st_size     if  local_size != remote_size:         print 'downloading ' + temp_zip_name         testfile.retrieve(remote_name, temp_zip_name)         #local_size = pathlib.path(data_path + filename).stat().st_size     else:         print 'skipping ' + temp_zip_name 

given coming unix, data_path has value

>>> data_path out[3]: '/data/cew/' 

interestingly, script still working under windows. files there expected:

>>> os.listdir('/data/cew') out[9]:  ['2005.annual.singlefile.csv',  '2005.csv',  '2005.zip',  '2005_filtered.csv',  '2006.annual.singlefile.csv',  '2006.csv',  '2006.zip',  '2006_filtered.csv'] 

however, have no clue is. python saving these somewhere in user directory? naturally, folder doesnt exist. trying cd /data/cew gave me error in windows' cmd.

should c:/data/cew. have checked?
