Note that \ is a escape character, and works fine in this case only 
because \h is not a valid sequence.
Use instead 'c:\\home' or r'c:\home' or 'c:/home' (forward slashes 
are fine in Windows too)

from ... import * is not the recommended way; use instead:

from os import listdir
listdir(d)

or

import os
os.listdir(d)
