Cameron, thanks for the points. In fact the file name contains multiple '_' characters. So, I appreciate what you recommended.

 filenames = {}
 for name in glob.glob('*chunk_*'):
   left, right = name.rsplit('_', 1)
   if left.endswith('chunk') and right.isdigit():
     filenames[int(right)] = filename
 sorted_filenames = [ filenames[k] for k in sorted(filenames.keys()) ]

It seems that 'filename' should be 'right'.

No, 'filename' should be 'name': the original filename. Thanks for the catch.

The idea is to have a map of int->filename so that you can open the files in numeric order. So 'right' is just the numeric suffix - you need 'name' for the open() call.

Cheers,
