[Tutor] Python suddenly finding ".DS_Store" files in folder

Ye Gods. How strange. They certainly don't tell you that in the switcher ads, 
do they ...

Yeah, now I have an ugly hack that checks if the file is .DS_Store and if so, 
skips it.

I think I might want to take another look at Yellow Dog Linux...

Thank you for the help!
Y, Scot
