You're not blind, no such function is provided.  Here are two that I use.
Note that files is an array of char *, and actually allocating the space
each char * points to is done in the function.  So, that space must be
free()'ed later.

/****************** FILE LIST **********************************************/
 
int file_list( char *files[], char *path )
 
{
  struct ffblk file_info;
  int i;
 
  i = 0;
  if (findfirst( path, &file_info, FA_ARCH ) == 0) {
    files[i++] = strdup( file_info.ff_name );
    assert( files[i-1]  );
    while (findnext( &file_info ) == 0) {
      files[i++] = strdup( file_info.ff_name );
      assert( files[i-1]  );
    }
  }
 
  return i;
}
 
/****************** FILE LIST **********************************************/
 
 
 
 
 
/****************** DIR LIST ***********************************************/
 
int dir_list( char *files[], char *path )
 
{
  struct ffblk file_info;
  int i;
 
  i = 0;
  if (findfirst( path, &file_info, FA_DIREC ) == 0) {
    if (file_info.ff_attrib == FA_DIREC) {
      files[i++] = strdup( file_info.ff_name );
      assert( files[i-1]  );
    }
    while (findnext( &file_info ) == 0)
      if (file_info.ff_attrib == FA_DIREC) {
        files[i++] = strdup( file_info.ff_name );
        assert( files[i-1]  );
      }
  }
 
  return i;
}
