The emulated find* set of functions relies on opendir(), readdir(),
and closedir(). Thus we have for Unixes:
API level for_each_file(), file_size(), file_time()
|
abstraction layer _al_findfirst(), _al_findnext(), _al_findclose()
|
platform-dep level 2 emulated findfirst(), findnext(), findclose()
|
platform-dep level 1 opendir(), readdir(), closedir()
Pretty nice stack :-)
