Yeah I figured that.  I am trying to find a way to have the program detect if 
the user input is a file or directory, which is easy enough with os.path.  
However, os.path makes no distinction between a regular file and a mask, eg 
filename.txt or *.txt.  I guess I'll have to have a second set of tests to see 
if the filename contains any wildcards..?
