If I remember correctly, the DOS FindFirst/Next only handles shortstring-sized path names.
Another "quirk" about using FindNext on Unix is that a symlink to a directory sets the faDirectory flag, and if it happens to be a circular symlink, I don't know of any way tell if it is safe to recurse into it without using fpStat or something like it. FindNext will eventually give up after several loops, but that doesn't seem like a very elegant way to handle the situation. - Jeff _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
