Hi,

I'm working on a project which needs to examine a directory.
Specifically, I have the directory name and I want to search for all
files ending *.olf, and I also want to search for all subdirectories.

Using C++, I can do this in DOS and with Allegro (foreachfile() or
whatever it is), but neither method is portable. I would like to port
the project to many platforms.

Is there any standard way of doing this that DJGPP supports, or am I
better off leaving this piece of code to be implementation specific?

Well, thanks very much for your time + help, and bye for now,
