files = set([file for file in glob.glob('Flag_of_*.svg')])
for file in files:
file = file[8:-4]
Yu probably want to keep the filename unouched and
use a variable like country here.
if file.startswith('the_'):
file = file[4:]
if countries.has_key(file):
b = 'flag-'+ countries[file] + '.svg'
print b
rename(file, b)
You are trying to use file in the rename but you have
modified the filename so it is no longer valid. I'd use
filename as the variable in the for loop and country
for the modified version used to access the dictionary.
$ python rename_svg.py
Uganda flag-ug.svg
Where does the Uganda come from? Loooks like the
real code has an extra print statement somewhere?
