Hi,

I don't know if anyone else has experienced this so I 
will put it out there regardless.

I have been using the distribution of Python 2.1 which 
comes with ActiveState ActivePython.

If I walk a directory using the os.path.walk module 
and return the results to a list and then try to 
display this list, Python falls flat on it's face and 
shuts down. 

However this does not occur when using Python 2.0.

The piece of code I have been using is as follows:

import os


def walker(arg, dirname, filenames):
    # Create A List Of Files In A Directory
    for files in filenames:
        arg.append(os.path.join(dirname, files))

DirLst = []

os.path.walk('c:\test\', walker, DirLst)

DirLst # At this point the command should display the 
list to the screen, instead the program shuts itself 
down
