Hi
I am trying to print out the contents of a directory, sorted.
**************** the code ****************
1 import os, sys
2
3 if len(sys.argv) < 2:
4 sys.exit("please enter a suitable directory.")
5
6 print os.listdir(sys.argv[1]).sort()
****************************************************************
if I remove ".sort()" at the end of line 6 I get an unsorted list of
files, if I leave it I get None. who do I fix this?
thank you
