Here is some code that could be useful It does not check the
directories for 0 files, but that shouldn't be too difficult to add.
#
from os import listdir, unlink
from os.path import isdir, isfile, islink, join, getmtime
deldir = "C:\Some\Dir"
delF
Forgot the rmdir
import os
import re
def processFiles(args,dir,fileList):
for thisFile in fileList:
if re.match(r'REGEXPATTERN',thisFile):
os.unlink("%s%s"dir,thisFile)
os.rmdir(dir)
os.path.walk("/",processFiles,None)
