In the attached file you will find a suggestion for an enhancement for the
dir.m source code.

It is including recursive '**' behaviour and displays the filenames in a
actual way - if no return value is given.

Tried also to speed things up, by using a alternative datenum calculation.

== examples ==


a=dir('C:\'); a
a=dir('C:\*.sys'); a
a=dir('C:\*file*.sys'); a



a=dir('C:\Windows\System32\**\*.dll'); a    
ans => about 5000 files



tic; dir('C:\Windows\System32\**\*.dll'); toc
Elapsed time is 2.81726 seconds

- please test on linux system
