In any case, it's pretty quick to just try it in the interpreter. I tried using python 2.7 on Linux, and it does not descend recursively into subdirectories. Perhaps you want os.walk, which lets you loop over an entire tree of files/directories. BTW, you forgot to double the backslash in your Windows example. Either double the backslash, or make it a raw string, or use forward slashes. -- DaveA _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
