little help

[Psybar Phreak]

sorry - add this

filesInDir = os.listdir(dirpath)
filesInDir.sort()

its supposed to go through all the files in the directory and get the first
2 lines out of the first file, print them, go to the next file, get the
first 2 lines, print them, etc.

im not getting a compile error - it just aint printing anything to screen!

WEIRD!
