Hi Ali,


You may want to look at:

    http://www.python.org/doc/lib/os-file-dir.html

The functions os.unlink() and os.rename() should apply to your question.


You may also want to look at some tutorials at:

    http://www.python.org/topics/learn/non-prog.html

as these should cover how to do standard input-output in Python.

We actually had some discussion about this yesterday.  Here's a link to
the relevant thread:

Good luck!
