1. walk_dir() and full path
Is there a way to retrieve the full path for a file name supplied by walk_dir()?

Your function provides 2 parameters: 'path' and 'entry'. 'path' is the
current path, 'entry' is a dir entry (ths I'm sure you already know,
just establishing the facts). Take the D_NAME part of entry and append
it to path, you should have the full path.
function your_func( sequence path, sequence entry )
sequence full_path
full_path = path &'\\' & entry[D_NAME]
return 0 -- keep going
end function

I know the path but the program doesn't.
Starting from a directory, c:\my_root_path\, I am trying to walk down a very
deep directory tree, reading any files under sub-directories, modifying these
files, and writing them again with the same tree-path but under different root
directory: instead of c:\my_root_path\the-directory-walked-throuh I want to write
them to c:\another_root_path\the-same-sub-directory-that-was-walked-through.
The problem is that walk_dir() does not supply information about sub-directories
it is walking through.

What does this example program show you? Is it what you wanted?
include file.e
function action(sequence pPath, sequence pDir)
sequence lToDir
integer lPos
if find('d', pDir[D_ATTRIBUTES]) = 0 then
lPos = find('\\', pPath[4..$])
if lPos then
lPos += 4
else
lPos = length(pPath)
end if
lToDir = pPath[1..3] & "NEWLOC\\" & pPath[lPos..$]
printf(1, "Copying %s\\%s to %s\\%s\n",
{pPath, pDir[D_NAME], lToDir, pDir[D_NAME]})
end if
return 0
end function
object VOID
VOID = walk_dir("C:\\EUPHORIA", routine_id("action"), 1)

Yes, that is what I want to do. Thanks Derek and Greg.
