I'm not sure exactly what you're getting from your popen('ls...'), but glob()
returns the filenames with no path info.  You may simply need to append the path
back onto the filename, which you can do with os.path.join(directory, file) or
perhaps os.path.abspath(file) -- join() lets you specify any directory, while
abspath() normalizes its filename based on the current directory (which can be set
with os.chdir() ).
