Hi
Can someone help me with this code below please,
For some reason it will not send me the first text file in the directory.
I made up an empty file a.txt file with nothing on it and it sends the
files i need but would like to fix the code.
Thanks
total = ' '
os.chdir('/home/woodygar/Desktop/Docs')
for i in os.listdir('.'):
if '.txt' in i:
f = open(i, 'r')
total += f.read()
f.close()
message = """\
Subject: %s
%s
"""% (SUBJECT,total)
Huh? Confused I am. If your first file is empty and you concatenate
the contents of each file (that's what total+=f.read() does), then what
do you expect to see? If you concatenate nothing (that is, the empty
file), then you should see nothing. I see no problem with the code,
but perhaps a problem with your expectations.
If I've misunderstood your question, the please reword and resend it,
but this time include more information: The files in '.', their
content, the output you do get, and the output you expected.
