Well, I'm a total python n00b, but I was playing around with exception handling yesterday, and was stricken by how incredibly easy it is to use the op system to create nice scripts... I did the following:
import sys lines = sys.stdin.readlines() lines.sort() for stuff in lines: print stuff , just to copy stuff from one file to another, and was quite impressed with the results. Now, I was thinking today, I'd really like to create a program that can go to a specific directory and upload all the files in the directory to a specific url for backup purposes, and I have the feeling that the python implementation would be ruthlessly small and efficient, like the above....anyone who could point me in the right direction as to how to actually do it? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
