listing files by modification time

[Deepak Rokade]

Hi,

I am using python 2.5 on sun solaris.

I want to limit the number of files returned by os.listdir() to some number
(say 1000), how can I do it ?

Also I wan to list the files only if they are older than some x days, how
can I do it?

I can do this through shell script using command.



find ${ DIR_PATH} -mtime +`expr ${PERIOD} - 1` -type f -exec ls  -l {} \;



I want to have similar functionality like above through python. I don't want
to list the whole files in directory and go to each file for checking it's
modification time.

I am thankful for any pointer.
