Recursively list all files in array - python

[MG&TL]

Hi-I'm writing a program in python- I need to recursively list all files (but not directories) in a directory.

I'd like to have them in an array, and be able to feed said array to a function like so:



myfunc(var[x])

Any ideas/tutorials/help/links are very much appreciated.

PS-How do you get a return value from nautilus-as in a file-chooser dialog?

I'm not 100% sure what you're asking

Do you want to iterate through your list of files, and if that file is a directory, recurse into that directory? or do you want to just recursively run through a single list?

If its option one, we'll talk, but if its option 2, I must ask: Why?

See:


os.listdir(path)
os.walk(top[, topdown=True[, onerror=None[, followlinks=False]]])

Thank you, both of you- ofnuts' documentation is kinda useful-11jmb, I want to recursively list all files (tree-style) in a directory.

I have found a solution here: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/miscellaneous/46693-how-shred-entire-directory-tree.html

But it's not exactly what I want. I'll try working with the os library and see how far I get.

Any clues on nautilus?
