Hallo Gord
GM>     I'm wondering if anyone has a snippet of code using the %@findfirst, 
GM> %@findnext variable function that duplicates the action of issuing a 
GM> "DIR /S" command? If so, could you please post it here or netmail me a 
GM> copy at the address below.
Your wish is certainly feasable, but it might not be advisable. Would you 
care to post a little bit more info about what you are trying to achieve? 
It's unclear why you should have to toil to get a duplicate of the DIR /S 
command.
GM>     I noticed that the 'C' programmers echo (C_ECHO) and Assembly 
GM> programmers echo (80XXX) both have an archive file of public domain 
GM> routines available called snippets. Does the 4DOS echo have such a 
GM> collection and if not, perhaps we could build one to help out 4DOS 
GM> programmers with code samples and utilities?
That would be very nice, and it's been tried several times before (no reason 
why it should not work out this time). You only need a place (better several 
around the world for cheaper access) to collect these things and keep them in 
some sort of recoverable order. And the persons who might have the strongest 
interest (JPSOFT and Rex) won't do anything to assist (or am I wrong this 
time?).
I add 2 little btms of mine that might not be what you want but give you a 
starting point. UUencoded and zipped:
