Hi!

I meant the opendir/readdir/closedir libc calls. I wrote POSIX interface
because
it conforms to it. It is the only way to write crossplatform compatible
code.

--- Cut ---
$ man opendir | col -b | egrep "(CONFORMING|POSIX)"
CONFORMING TO
       SVID 3, POSIX, BSD 4.3
--- End ---

you mean that POSIX (opendir & co I guess) interface? Since I've tried that
Dopendir() under TOS and I always get negative directory handle.
