glob.glob returns a list of filenames. You need to loop over it and
pass individual elements to the open function.
for item in glob.glob('*.txt'):
# item is a filename. pass it to open and process however you need
I don't know how the set_text method works, but it sounds like it
might not work right if you call it repeatedly with different
filenames.
