Fred Drake 0256c1f453 Document splitdrive().
For all split*(), these split path *into* pairs, not split path *in*
pairs.  "Into" can be used for transformations, "in" is for
containment.

Fred Drake a9b9bf96fe Change this to be os.path.
Use consistent parameter naming with the os documentation (paths
always named "path" or "path1", "path2"...).

Fred Drake 64e3b43583 Move files around to get the names to match the module names except for
case.  Two modules (SocketServer, BaseHTTPServer) still don't match; those
names are just too long!
