to catch and recover from StopIterations, use this:
try:
raise StopIteration
except StopIteration:
print 'caught StopIteration!' # verbose: sys.exc_info() requires

I create list of files, open each file in turn, skip past all the blank
lines, and then process the first line that starts with a number (see

filenames=glob.glob("C:/*.txt")

f =file(fn)
line = " "
while line[0] not in digits:
line = f.next()
