Subject: traverse a directory
Date: Tue, 1 Jan 2008 08:51:33 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5f20a79c-c1fc-4853-b55f-657f6d66f0e9@l6g2000prm.googlegroups.com> (raw)

if i want to recurse into a directory, do i have to write my own?

e.g. i want to apply a file processing function to all files in a dir
and subdirs. Somethnig like

(apply 'process-my-file "/Users/xah/emacs/" "\.html$")

I noticed that directory-files only list the dir file. Someone told me
there's a directory-files-recur but that doesn't seems to be in emacs.

thx in advance.
