A recent proselyte (not yet a convert) asked how to walk directories in Python. I told him about os.listdir and os.path.isdir, and then os.path.walk, and directed him to the library reference, os module section. Turns out, that section doesn't document these functions (or a bunch of other functions in the os module). I think it used to--or did I learn about them somewhere else? Is there a problem in the conversion to HTML? Also, I knew to look in posixpath for path functions, but there wasn't a reference to NT functionality that a novice could find... kb -- Kevin Butler butler@byu.edu 8-) A pun a day keeps the doctor away...and everyone else, too. http://students.cs.byu.edu/~butler/homepage.html (updated 10/18/96)
