Hey all, if i use a os.walk() to append files to a list like so...
files = [] root = self.path.GetValue() # wx.TextCtrl input filter = self.fileType.GetValue().lower() # wx.TextCtrl input not_type = self.not_type.GetValue() # wx.CheckBox input for base, dirs, walk_files in os.walk(root): main.Update() # i only need the part of the filename after the user selected path: base = base.replace(root,"") for entry in walk_files: entry = os.path.join(base,entry) if filter != "": if filter in entry.lower() and not not_type: files.append(entry) if filter not in entry.lower() and not_type: files.append(entry) else: files.append(entry) ... will it sort properly on mac and *nix? if not, is there a tried an true sorting method someone could graciously let me know of? oh by sort properly i mean: file1.ext file2.ext file3.ext file4.ext zzfile.ext folder1\file1.ext folder1\file2.ext folder1\file3.ext folder2\file1.ext folder2\file2.ext folder2\file3.ext something tells me it's probably better to do my own sorting, just in case, so i tried: files.sort(key=lambda x: x.lower()) but that didn't work, made them out of order.
