Look in System.Directory;  specifically, getDirectoryContents should do what you want.  You might also check out the FileManip package, which provides some convenient functionality for finding all files which match a particular pattern.

Cheers,

I found System.Posix.Files and I'm planning on using the rename function in it for actually renaming, but I can't find an easy way to get all filenames in a particular directory. Does anyone know how to do it?
