I meant specifically the findfirst and findnext functions which work from ffblk structures. I have converted dir.h to vc format and started to write wrappers for the funcs prototyped.therin I got distracted by adding #ifdef _MSC_VER blocks to my program instead I would ideally like a file called dj.lib in my msdev/lib and versions of all the standard headers this would allow DJGPP programs to be compiled with minimal adaptation I can see problems with inevitable name clashes and patching extra prototypes in existing .h files I agree it would be better to use ANSI or POSIX functions in the first place if portability is important
