FSList 1.0

This script allows you to manage a list of files, directories and other  file system objects. Optionally recurses directories and ensure that each item in the list is a regular file. This was an experiment to see how fast an old geek who hasn't coded anything in years can pick up Python, using nothing but the docs online and the "Python in a Nutshell" book. For my "simple" experiment, I subclassed the built-in list object to handle files and directories. It quickly grew, but I learned about special methods, class properties, tarfile and zipfile and loads else.Usage is mostly explained on top. I've tested it on Windows NT, Windows XP, and Linux. It's not designed for speed, but works well enough up to a few thousand files. I've tried it on lists of more than 100,000 (/usr/*, c:*). It didn't break, but performance was poor.
