Hey,
Thanks for the help.it detects now using glob.glob("*.*.txt")
Can u suggest how to open and read file this way?
*if glob.glob("*.*.txt"):
file=open(glob.glob("*.*.txt"))
self.text_view.get_buffer().set_text(file.read())
else:
file=open(glob.glob("*.*.html"))
self.text_view.get_buffer().set_text(file.read())
*
This gives error!!
