You could do it manually using

for file in glob.glob("*.xml"):

But you need to think about all the other possible file
endings too.

Or you could look at the fileinput module which takes a
different approach.

Finally if you need to process subdirectories too you
can use the os.walk() function

The Python docs describe how to use glob, fileinput
and os.walk.
