Hi, I am new at Python, and very rusty at the one language I was good at, which was BASIC.
I want to write a script to compare filenames in chosen directories, on windows machines. Ideally it would compose a list of strings of all the filenames in the directories, and those directories would be chosable by the user of the script.
I am quite happy to do my own legwork on this , I realise it is simple stuff, but can anyone point me in the right direction to start?
Thanks
os.listdir does almost exactly what you are asking for. For a little more flexibility, you can use os.path.walk, although it's not quite as newb friendly.
