Now, listdir() returns both the files and folders in one big mess, so I am wondering if there is some ListFolderInDir() function or similar within python that I should use, if so what is its name and location.

Look into the os.isdir() function, which will tell you easily whether a given pathname is a directory or not. You will, however, need to do your own sorting if you want directories to appear before regular files. (Of course, you'd probably want to sort entries anyhow, since IIRC the ordering returned by os.listdir() is arbitrary.)
