Hello.
I just joined this list and already I have a question!
Imagine that.

I hope this is an easy one...

How do I get a list of the contents of sub-directories that would be found in the same directory as the application's executable?

I've been working on these project for many years:

http://akrobiz.com/ezfb
http://akrobiz.com/laserboy

What I'd really like to do is disconnect LaserBoy from ezfb and use SDL instead. I want to be able to run LaserBoy on just about any computer. Currently, the text / graphical user interface for LaserBoy allows the user to choose to open a variety of files as input. These files are sorted into sub-directories. Once the user chooses a type of file, then LaserBoy shows a list of files of that type that are present on the hard drive. I achieve this in Linux by using a popen() to a shell and I read back what I get from issuing "ls -1 ./directory/*.type". How do I do something like this that will work in every OS?

Thanks in advance.

Have a great day!     James.   :o)
