I don't know if I can be of help but here is some code that should open a file, read it, and copy it to a new directory.

###
import os

# open file to be copied
filename = open(path, "rb") # path is the place where file is located given as a string
# "rb" read it as binary as not to corrupt the file

info = filename.read() # reads the file to variable "info"

filename.close( ) # closes the file after it has been read

os.mkdir(folder _path) # makes a new folder/directory for the file to be put where
# folder path is the path for the new folder

# make new file
new_filename = open(new_file_p ath, "wb") # new_file_path is the location and name of where the new file will be made
# given as a string
#(don't forget to add extension such as ".txt")
# "wb" writes it as binary as not to currupt the file


new_filename.wr ite(info) # writes info to new file

new_filename.cl ose() # this closes the file

print "done"
