findfirst() for nested directories

How do I recognize/list the directory headings nested within
some arbitrary direcory? (using Borlandc C++).
	Findfirst() and findnext(), using them as per the 
"topic example" provided by borland, only seems to recognize
filnames. Is there some ffblk.d_name to refer to?

Use FA_DIREC in the attribute argument.  This will give you all normal
files _and_ directories.  Then you look at the attributes of each
returned file to see whether it's a directory.
