Resuming in exception handling

[Brian Quinlan]

Just restructure your code:

LWPath = 'C:\\LAND WARRIOR 1.0'

flist = glob.glob( LWPath + '\\LW*.txt')

for fname in flist:
	print 'removing ' + fname
	try:
		os.remove(fname)
	except OSError:
    		print('skipping ' + fname)
		flist.remove(fname)

I want to resume the for statement in the chunk of code I am running
in this (very simple) script.
Here's what I have so far...

<code snippet>
import os, glob

#place all LW*.txt files in list and kill them

LWPath = 'C:\\LAND WARRIOR 1.0'
try:
    flist = glob.glob( LWPath + '\\LW*.txt')

    for fname in flist:
        print 'removing ' + fname

        os.remove(fname)

    del flist

except OSError:
    print('skipping ' + fname)
    flist.remove(fname)


</code snippet>


I get an OSError about a file permission on one of the files it tries
to delete. When it gets that exception I want it to simply move on to
the next file. How do I do that?

Thanks
