In article <[2558d2f7:330]comp.sys.amiga.tech@tronsbox.UUCP> bleys@tronsbox.UUCP (bleys) writes: <Kemp, is using a function specific to manx, namely scdir(). You pass it a <string, including wildcards, and it does a directory search and returns the <file pointer of the first file that fits the pattern. You want getfnl (in 5, I don't think it was in 4). However, it's diffent enough from your description of scdir that you'll probably want to write scdir based on it, rather than modifing code using scdir to use getfnl. Fortunately, there's an example in the manual that should do exactly what you want with minor mods. <mike -- So this is where the future lies Mike Meyer In a beer gut belly; In an open fly mwm@berkeley.edu Brilcreamed, acrylic, mindless boys ucbvax!mwm Punching, kicking, making noise mwm@ucbjade.BITNET
