It's easy to do -- I have several programs that do it.  What you need to
do is use the "FINDFIRST" and "FINDNEXT" functions in DOS.  One of the 
parameters you have to supply to "FINDFIRST" is a search type (like archive
or directory).  There are two kinds of "hidden" files -- system and hidden.
Just look in your Tech Ref manual for the flags and command parameters.
Sorry I can't dump you source to do it, but there's bound to be someone
out there with a tech ref manual handy.  Mine's 150 miles away.
