+# Dirent
+Dirent is a C/C++ programming interface that allows programmers to retrieve
+information about files and directories under Linux/UNIX.  This project
+provides Linux compatible Dirent interface for Microsoft Windows.
+
+
+# Installation
+
+Download the latest Dirent installation package from
+[GitHub](https://github.com/tronkko/dirent/releases) and
+unpack the installation file with 7-zip, for example.  The installation
+package contains dirent.h file as well as a few example programs and
+tests.
+
+
+## Install Dirent for All Programs
+
+To make dirent.h available for all C/C++ programs, simply copy the
+``include/dirent.h`` file to the system include directory.  System include
+directory contains header files such as assert.h and windows.h.  In Visual
+Studio 2008, for example, the system include may be found at
+``C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\include``.
+
+Everything you need is included in the single dirent.h file, and you can
+start using Dirent immediately -- there is no need to add files to your
+Visual Studio project.
+
+
+## Embed Dirent into Your Own Project
+
+If you wish to distribute dirent.h alongside with your own source code, then
+copy ``include/dirent.h`` file to a new sub-directory within your project and
+add that directory to include path on Windows while omitting the directory
+under Linux/UNIX.  This allows your project to be compiled against native
+dirent.h on Linux/UNIX while substituting the functionality on Microsoft
+Windows.
+
+
+## Examples
+
+The installation package contains four example programs:
+
+Program  | Purpose
+-------- | -----------------------------------------------------------------
+ls       | List files in a directory, e.g. ls "c:\Program Files"
+find     | Find files in subdirectories, e.g. find "c:\Program Files\CMake"
+updatedb | Build database of files in a drive, e.g. updatedb c:\
+locate   | Locate a file from database, e.g. locate notepad.exe
+
+To build the example programs, first install [CMake](https://cmake.org/).
+Then, with CMake installed, open command prompt and create a temporary
+directory ``c:\temp\dirent`` for the build files as
+
+```
+c:\
+mkdir temp
+mkdir temp\dirent
+cd temp\dirent
+```
+
+Generate build files as
+
+```
+cmake d:\dirent
+```
+
+where ``d:\dirent`` is the root directory of the Dirent package (containing
+this README.md and LICENSE file).
+
+Once CMake is finished, open Visual Studio, load the generated dirent.sln file
+from the build directory and build the solution.  Once the build completes, run
+the example programs from the command prompt as
+
+```
+cd Debug
+ls .
+find .
+updatedb c:\
+locate cmd.exe
+```
+
+
+# Copying
+
+Dirent may be freely distributed under the MIT license.  See the
+[LICENSE](LICENSE) file for details.
+
+
+# Alternatives to Dirent
+
+I ported Dirent to Microsoft Windows in 1998 when only a few alternatives
+were available.  However, the situation has changed since then and nowadays
+both [Cygwin](http://www.cygwin.com) and [MingW](http://www.mingw.org)
+allow you to compile a great number of UNIX programs in Microsoft Windows.
+They both provide a full dirent API as well as many other UNIX APIs.  MingW
+can even be used for commercial applications!
