The documentation for os.rename (e.g., here, https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.html#os.rename but also for 3.8 and 3.9) currently reads,

On Unix, if src is a file and dst is a directory or vice-versa, anq:q IsADirectoryError or a NotADirectoryError will be raised respectively.

That "anq:q" should probably be just "an"; it appears someone tried to quit vim ;-)
