	[program]
   ---------

	   According to the _Turbo_C_Bible_, calls to findfirst() and findnext()
   are supposed to return filenames that match *both* the given path *and* the
   given attribute.  However, the above program, which clearly specifies the
   *directory* attribute (FA_DIREC), finds both directories *and* plain files.
   Anyone have any comments/fixes/etc?

I found this too, attempting to write a ls for the PC.  You have to check the
directory attribute yourself in the ffblk.  What a pain that is.  I wrote a
	natFindFirst(...) and
	natFindNext(...)
which did the checking of attributes manually and findnexted until it got a
match or end.  Obvious, clumsy and uncouth.  You could always rewrite the
library.
