python trying to make loop run forever

[leahk]

i want this loop to keep on checking the number of files that are in the current working directory and every time one is added... print it out with cat. it stops running after a few seconds. right now it works for a bit but when i try to add a file it just prints out the last file over and over again. thank for ur help

while True:
        while (x==t):
                time.sleep(0.5)
                x = filecount(os.getcwd())

        else:
                x = filecount(os.getcwd())
                g = commands.getoutput('ls -ct1 | head -1')
                if g.endswith('pyc')==True:
                        g = g[:-1]
                print ('printing out', g)
                c = 'cat' 
                x = c + ' ' + g
                os.system(x)
                x = t
