NAME

     direntry - read directory entries

SYNTAX

     #include <direntry.h>

     DIR *opendir(fn);

     struct direntry *readdir(dir);

     void closedir(dir);

     DIR *dir;
     char *fn;

DESCRIPTION

     The point of direntry.h is to provide a uniform interface to
     BSD's sys/dir.h and POSIX's dirent.h.

     The readdir interface is highly unsatisfactory.  It does not
     distinguish  between  I/O  errors  and end-of-directory.  It
     uses malloc.  The return  type  for  closedir  varies:  some
     implementations return the close return value.
