Time in python

[tritran]

I mean we have a directory and that directory contain some of the file, I
want to sort the file according to the time and may be i like to seperate
the file and the time into 2 parts in order to display in the table like
-------------------------------------------------
|File Name                     |    Date                       |
-------------------------------------------------
|file1.txt                         |  28/05/2002 6:30      |
------------------------------------------------
