Hi,

Can anyone provide links or basic info on memory management, variable 
dereferencing, or the like? I have a script that traverses a file structure 
using os.walk and adds directory names to a list. It works for a small number 
of directories, but when I set it loose on a directory with thousands of 
dirs/subdirs, it crashes the DOS session and also the Python shell (when I run 
it from the shell).  This makes it difficult to figure out if the allocated 
memory or heap space for the DOS/shell session have overflown, or why it is 
crashing.
