As I'm not the one who put all those files and subdirectories there, I
cannot help you more.  If the motivation to find windows.h is sufficiently
high, searching through the tree isn't such a bad idea.  You don't have to
do it on-line: just issue an "ls -lR" command (assuming you use a
command-line ftp utility) and you will get the recursive listing of the
entire tree.  If you redirect it to a file, you can then log off and read
the listing locally.
