i have a 2000 files with header and data
i need to get the date information from the header
then insert it into my database
i am doing it in batch so i use glob.glob('/mydata/*/*/*.txt')
to get the date on line 4 in the txt file i use
linecache.getline('/mydata/myfile.txt/, 4)

linecac
Hello,
Welcome to Python!
glob returns a list of filenames, but getline is made to work on just
one filename.

>>> for filename in glob.glob('/etc/*'):
>>> print linecache.getline(filename, 4)
Maybe you coul
