Try the FindFirst() / FindNext() commands, or you may just want to use
BuildPickBuffer(). Using any of these commands you should be able to
determine if a file exists in a sudbirectory.

Not very well (ie DOS support). You can set it using the low
level functions in TSE:
proc SetVidBorder(integer b)
register r
// Set the video border attribute
r.bx = b shl 8 // attr in bh
r.ax = 1001h // for Int 10h function 01h call
intr(10h, r) // set the border
end
SetVidBorder(Color(Cyan on Black))
SetVidBorder(Color(Black on Black))
