first off.. I wouldn't be using 'ls' that has gotten me into trouble
especially when people have ls aliased to 'ls -ltr'
use opendir(), readdir() and closedir().

second I am sure that there is a widget or code somewhere that someone wrote
that does what you want. Just look for it, (I don't know where because I
haven't been doing much Tk in a while).

Is this the Tk module you are using or some other gui module?
