Yes, but half of the code of findfirst()/findnext() is duplicated in
_dos_findfirst()/_dos_findnext(), so why not let the former functions call
the latter if LFN is set to N ?

Ok, I can do it. But first I would like to know in which directory to put
these low-level functions and in which header file to declare them
(libc/dosio.h ?). Same thing for my helper function __dostime_to_time_t().
According to DJ's rules, I think there is no need to document them in a .txh
file, only in their source file.
