Does anyone know why the following code successfully labels (with [f|d|?])
entries in the current directory, but not in any other
directory? (All other directories' entries print [?].)
I'm using Python 2.5.1 on Cygwin.
Thanks!
import os
# collect all files and their paths
def collectinfo(path):
files = os.listdir(path)
files.sort()
for n in files:
if os.path.isdir(n):
print "[d]", n
elif os.path.isfile(n):
print "[f]", n
else:
print "[?]", n
# this works
if __name__ == "__main__":
collectinfo(".")
# this does not work, always labels with [?]
#if __name__ == "__main__":
# collectinfo("/")

Oops, there it is: my stupidity on display forever.
Thanks for the catch! :)
