Probably not the best way. I'm still a newbie hack somedays myself. But this
should work :)

Subject: directory listing to array
I've been working on a little script for a while but I can't seem to get
this part working. What I want to do is list all of the *.jpg files in a
directory (ls *.jpg) and then have an array with each filename as elements
of that array. Its probably easy but I just can't get it right yet... :-)
Thanks for the help.
