Hi I have some code which works nine times out of ten. Maybe some could help
me make this a little more robust. I have a bunch of files in a folder with
a strict versioning based naming convention, where I want to open the
highest version number of a nuke script (not necessarily the one with the
newest modification date). So in the example folder contents listed below I
want to open "233_bb0072_comp_comp2k_v05.nk" (fourth from the bottom). Every
once in a while my python script ends up opening
233_bb0072_comp_comp2k_v04.nk (the next to last correct one). The script I
am using is shown below. Can anyone explain why it doesn't always work?
233_bb0072_comp_comp2k_v01.nk
233_bb0072_comp_comp2k_v01.nk~
233_bb0072_comp_comp2k_v02.nk
233_bb0072_comp_comp2k_v03.nk
233_bb0072_comp_comp2k_v03.nk~
233_bb0072_comp_comp2k_v04.nk
233_bb0072_comp_comp2k_v04.nk~
233_bb0072_comp_comp2k_v05.nk
233_bb0072_comp_comp2k_v05.autosave
233_bb0072_comp_comp2k_v05.nk~
233_bb0072_comp_comp2k_v06.nk
