Almost all of it is D specs defining variables and functions. That stuff is #include'd in my C version, which I think makes the C code more readable. Are there C include file equivalents for RPG? I know you can use /INCLUDE and /COPY, but that's not what I'm referring to. I mean system supplied header files that make all the D spec stuff unnecessary. So you could just do something like: D/INCLUDE types.h D/INCLUDE dirent.h Of course I guess it would be nice if RPG supported typedef, too (maybe it does?). For the original question asked by the poster, I wonder if it would be easier to code the IFS stuff in C and then make it a bound procedure for the RPG program? You could make your own function called 'change_directory' that would be a C function to do the chdir() API and another function to list the files. That would be pretty easy I think.
