congratulations!

1. DIRECTORY accepts :CIRCLE-P on UNIX only - shouldn't it accept it on
   win32 too?  I mean, now that you resolve the shell shortcuts, there
   may be circular shortcuts.

2. while you are at it, could you please add a :TRUENAMEP keyword
   argument to DIRECTORY (defaulting to T) so that when it is NIL,
   CLISP will list the pathnames "as is", without resolving them and
   without making sure that they exist.

Thanks!
