What is a good way to read the contents of a directory? I just started working with file I/O, and wrote a program to load and save a file whose name can be input by the user. I would like to change the program a bit so it doesn''t freeze every time the user types a filename in wrong.

Other shells functions are useful too - like the standard gui one that let''s the user browse for the filename.
