[code to find and process files ending in .log]

|
>2. is there a better, faster way of doing this??,
|
|
|
|
For matching literal text, string.find, .rfind, .index, .rindex
|
|
are faster that regexes. Since you want to match text at end only,
|
|
if filename[-4:] == '.log'
|
|
will be even faster.
