There's a library function called `chdir' which you should use.

Use the library functions `opendir' and `readdir'.

All of these are documented in the library reference.  To read the docs 
of any function, type "info libc alpha <func-name>" from the DOS prompt, 
where <func-name> is the name of the function.  For example:

	info libc alpha opendir
