 Is there a bug in the findfirst() and findnext() functions in DJGPP??? Or
 maybe in the ffblk struct. When I make a program that checks for all the
 files using findfirst() and findnext() passing the addres of an ffblk object
 then printing the filename, the filename is missing the first two
 characters. I do like this:
 
 void main(void)
 {
         struct ffblk fileinfo;
         findfirst("*.*", &fileinfo, FA_ARCH);
         cprintf("%s\n\r", fileinfo.ff_name);
 }
 
 if I use this statement to print the filename instead everything seems to
 work fine, but this isn't how you should have to do;
 
 cprintf("%s\n\r", fileinfo.ff_name - 2);
 
 Is this a bug in DJGPP's libraries or am I doing something wrong?

Last Second Note: I also discovered that fileinfo.ff_fsize returns a way to large
		  number. Although, I copied the example from the help!!!! What
		  is wrong???
