someone corrects me, I don't think you can expect a 'for'
statement to do that. You need to have a 'next' statement
inside your for loop to get the next yield from the generator.
As I read this, out of context, it is wrong. It it very unusual to call
next on the current iterator (here next(rootobs)), inside a for loop.
You probably want something like :
for f in rootobs:
file = next
This is definitely wrong, as it makes 'find' an alias for the next()
function.
base = os.path.basename(file.name)
and file.name will be an AttributeError.

If one wants to iterate through files and lines within files, which I
believe I saw in this thread, one should have a for loop within a for loop.
