    trying to find and list all mp3's in folder.

    i'm new to C++. ive read all the basic tutorials on this page and have started on the K&R but ultimately the first thing i'm trying to do is in the title. i've tried searching but couldn't find anything. can someone point me in the right direction of the steps i have to taake to get this going? thanks!

    Working with files that in-depth is going to be platform specific. What OS are you using?

    Assuming windows - people have tried to do similar things many times before - so searching the forum would be sure to give you some good results (though you may want to consider not search for specifically mp3 - but search for getting a directory listing, than process that listing.
