How would you do it in another language? In C there is the system
subprogram in <stdlib.h>: can you pragma Import that?
Is POSIX available in your implementation? There may be operations to do
that sort of thing.
Calls like dir and copy may mean calling an OS specific routine. What
routines are available for the O/S you're using? Can you pragma Import
them?
