have a *lot* of new routines added to the filesys module. In particular,
one that would be nice to have *immediately* is a directory iterator that
returns strings containing all the filenames in a given directory.

Well  this will provide some interesting research and experimentation.   Looking at the source code of some Unix commands might be of some help.
  
In other news: I am working away on the fileio module right now, doing a
lot of clean up. I'm hoping that in about a week I'll be able to post the
code and we can get started on the multi-lingual header files and unit
tests for that module.

I would advise against *any* modifications to the existing library code.
Almost every routine is going to have at least minor changes when I begin
posting new code. That means that any effort expended right now may be
wasted.
  Well my concern is to get the conversation, research, and  experimentation started early.  When v2.0 "hits the stands" it'll  feel better to say "someone is working on that issue" than to point  everyone to the 1.81 download.
