Is this what you were looking for?  (The info files document all functions
available)

Syntax
------

     #include <ftw.h>

     int ftw(const char *dir,
             int (*func)(const char *path, struct stat *stbuf, int flag),
             int depth);

Description
-----------

This function recursively descends the directory hierarchy which starts
with DIR.  For each file in the hierarchy, `ftw' calls the user-defined
function FUNC which is passed a pointer to a `NULL'-terminated
character array in PATH holding the full pathname of the file, a
pointer to a `stat' structure (stat.)  STBUF with a filesystem
information about that file, and an integer FLAG.  Possible values of
FLAG are:

`FTW_F'
     This is a regular file.

`FTW_D'
     This is a directory.
