  11. Hi,
  12. I am just starting out in the world of C programming so can someone
  13. help me with this probably basic question -
  14.  
  15. How do I read a directory, and determine whether the entries are files
  16. or directories... I have used readdir, but this doesn't seem to
  17. differentiate between the two.  In short I'm trying to write a program
  18. that "walks" a directory structure (under dos).
  19.  
  20. Thanks in advance...
  21.  
  22. Cheers.
