[Tutor] Re: listdir() (original) (raw)

I have recently learnt of the os.listdir() function, and I intend to experiment with it using a cgi-page (html). I would like to have a base directive show all the files and folders, so that the user can browse through it all.

But for now I was wondering if there is a simpler way to do? like an built in function...

I guess it depends on what your purpose is... but I would say the simplest way to do it would be to install twisted python and then ...

mkdir foo mkdir foo/bar touch foo/abc touch foo/bar/defg mktap web --port 8888 --path foo twistd -f web.tap

Then point your browser at http://localhost:8888/
