What order does info get returned in by os.listdir() ? I'm just starting to write python code, on an Win XP Pro machine. I've got various directories which, when I look at them in Win XP, sorted by name, I see in order, eg:
~prefixed file .txt A.txt B.txt ... Z.txt ie, XP seems to think that files with a "~" as their first character are sorted ahead of A. When I use os.listdir() to return that list of leaf values, I do seem to get them in alphabetical order, A before B before C etc, but the ~-prefixed ones are returned after the Z-prefixed files rather than before the A-ones. I was wondering why... -- Jeremy C B Nicoll - my opinions are my own. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
