New submission from Stephen Gilbert <linuxelf at gmail.com>:
I just ran into this using os.path.walk. I noticed it wouldn't find
files inside a particular directory. In debugging, I found that the
name of the directory was 'BBDO Atlanta ' os.path.walk would find the
directory, but wouldn't enter it. I added a check inside my CallBack
function:
if file[-1:] == ' ' and os.path.isdir(file):
os.path.walk(file,CallBack,None)
and the script now traverses into the directory.
