There's not _really_ anything wrong with this code, provided the length of dirList is "short" (since otherwise the performance issues of growing strings with += may cause trouble). It might also be preferable to change from the for statement to a "while dirList:" since that doesn't require the unused "x" and the confusion of apparently testing the length of a list that is getting shorter with each iteration. -Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
