To get a list, I often either create a PF with CRTPF and RCDLEN(256) or
so - then use redirection of the ls command in QShell

ls some-directory > /qsys.lib/yourlib.lib/thefile.file/thefile.mbr

If you use 2 arrows, it appends. You can also point to a non-library
file, and it will create it for you - won't create a PF, however, so you
have to pre-create.

Before you get into complex API's, one quick thing I have done in the
past to get a list from a folder is to use the FTP DIR command and
output to STDOUT. It creates a file of your filenames.

The nice thing about this technique is that it can be done entirely in
CL. And unlike some other stuff like TAATOOLS, FTP is installed and
available on virtually all System i boxes.
