speak for yourself ;-)
(the code is taken from http://effbot.org/librarybook/os-path.htm )
Here's the final working script. It opens all of the text files in a
directory and its subdirectories and combines them into one Rich text
file (index.rtf):
#! /usr/bin/python
import glob
import fileinput
import os
import string
import sys
index = open("index.rtf", 'w')
class DirectoryWalker:
Thanks everyone!

Thanks, that was a big help. It worked fine once I removed
> os.chdir("C:\\Python23\\programs\\Magazine\\SamplesE")
and changed "for file, st in DirectoryWalker("."):"
to
"for file in DirectoryWalker("."):" (removing the "st")

Use os.walk

It takes a little reading to get it if you are a beginner, but there
are zillions of examples if you

Well, yes, but if he's kicking things off with:

I'm guessing he's not on Linux. Maybe you're trying to convert him?

This is the beginning of a script that I wrote to open all the text
files in a single directory, then process the data in the text files
line by line into a single index file.
os.chdir("C:\\Python23\\programs\\filetree")
mydir = glob.glob("*.txt")
index = open("index.rtf", 'w')
for File in mydir
