Well, there's another way to do it, using the filter built in function:

for filename in filter(lambda f:f.endswith('.xml'), os.listdir('.')):
        print filename

You can do the same thing with itertools.ifilter if you need to deal
with arbitrary iterables.  I think your first example of:

for filename in os.listdir('.'):
   if filename.endswith('.xml'):
       <do something>

Is the most readable though.
